Jevamrutha: Organic Liquid Formulations For Sustainable Agriculture Practices: A Review

Abstract

In the context of today’s modern agriculture, jeevamrutha, popularized by Shri Subhash Palekar, is a panacea for the prosperity of small farmers. It is important to provide a congenial environment to microorganisms that help in making available the essential nutrients for plant growth viz., nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, to the plants. Jeevamrutha provides such an environment to beneficial microbes. Application of Jeevamrutha to soil improves the soil considerably. It also encourages microbial activity in the soil.
