Boost Berseem Yield: 5 Expert Tips for February to Ensure Fodder Abundance

• Spray 10-15 kg urea per acre immediately after harvesting in February for new branch growth; address phosphorus deficiency with single super phosphate.
• Maintain light, regular irrigation as temperatures rise, but irrigate immediately after harvesting, not 2-3 days prior.
• Harvest berseem 5-7 cm above ground to protect the 'growing point' and ensure rapid regrowth of new leaves and branches.
• Perform timely weeding and hoeing in February to remove chicory and other weeds, improving air/sunlight circulation and fodder quality.
• Apply growth promoters or gibberellic acid for stalled growth; use neem oil for pests, avoiding chemicals to protect animal health.
