Boost Profits: Cultivate Cucurbit Vegetables After Wheat Harvest with Pro-Tray Technique

• Farmers can earn additional profits by cultivating cucurbit vegetables like bottle gourd, ridge gourd, and pumpkin after wheat harvest.
• The 'Pro-Tray' nursery technique is recommended for advanced cultivation, ensuring healthy, pest-free production and reduced costs.
• District Horticulture Officer Dr. Puneet Kumar Pathak advises using a mixture of vermicompost, perlite, and vermiculite in Pro-Trays for strong roots.
• Pro-Tray method prevents 'transplantation shock', reduces weed problems, and allows for 10-15 days earlier production.
• Early crop maturity and higher market prices during scarcity lead to significant economic benefits for farmers.
