What is the seed rate and seed requirement for black gram farming?

The seed rate mainly depends on the variety of the seed selected. Usually, an average of about 8 to 10 kg per acre is sufficient. Black gram seeds must be treated with seeds treating fungicide to reduce infection by fungal pathogens from the soil. The seeds are treated with Bavistin 2 grams for every kg of seeds. Organic fungicide like Trichoderma Viride is also available for pulses by 4 grams/kg.
