Tropical & Temperate

Selection of Field / Land Preparation Practices

• The field should be well prepared, free from weeds, and have proper drainage.
• Carry out 1–2 deep ploughings and expose the soil to sunlight.
• Complete 3–4 rounds of harrowing to obtain a fine tilth.
• Before the final harrow, apply 8–10 MT of well-decomposed FYM per acre along with 250 g Trichoderma to help control soil-borne fungi.

Sowing Season

• Summer
• Kharif
• Rabi

Seed Rate

100–120 g per acre

Spacing

• Row to Row: 75 cm or 90 cm
• Plant to Plant: 45 cm

Fertilizer Dose per Acre

Total N:P:K Requirement: 50:25:25 kg per acre

• Basal Dose: Apply 50% Nitrogen and 100% Phosphorus & Potassium during final land preparation.
• Top Dressing: Apply 25% Nitrogen at 30 days after sowing.
• Second Top Dressing: Apply remaining 25% Nitrogen at 45 days after sowing.

Irrigation

Irrigation frequency depends on:

• Soil Type: Light soils require frequent irrigation, while heavy soils require less frequent irrigation.
• Crop Stage: Maintain adequate moisture during vegetative growth. Provide frequent, shallow irrigation during flowering and fruiting. Gradually reduce irrigation during harvesting.
• Growing Season: Summer requires frequent irrigation, winter requires comparatively less frequent irrigation, and rainy season irrigation depends on available soil moisture.

Weed Control

Timely weed removal is essential. Need-based hand weeding should be carried out to maintain a healthy crop.

Harvesting

• Harvest mature green fruits from 60–70 days after transplanting, followed by harvesting every 10–15 days.
• For red dry chilli production, harvesting begins at 100–110 days after transplanting, followed by harvesting every 25–30 days.

Expected Yield

• Green Chilli: 10–15 MT per acre (under recommended agronomic practices).
• Red Dry Chilli: 1.5–2 MT per acre.
