• Use more decomposed manure in the nursery.

• Mix 7 to 8 kg of cow dung rotted manure per 10 sqm of land.

• Mix 225 grams of urea, 500 grams of single super phosphate and 50 grams of zinc sulphate per 10 square meters of land.

• About 500 to 600 grams of muriate of potash can also be sprayed in 100 square meter area.

• When the color of the plants starts turning yellow in the nursery, prepare a solution by mixing 1 kg zinc sulphate and half a kg lime in 50 liters of water. Now spray this solution in the nursery. This will eliminate the problem of yellowing of the plants.

• Plants also start turning yellow due to lack of nitrogen in the nursery. In such a situation, spray 15 to 30 grams of ammonium sulphate or 7 to 10 grams of urea per square meter of land.

• Special attention should be paid to weed control in the nursery. Paddy plants become weak due to weeds.

• Spray Pendimethalin or Butachlor after 1 or 2 days of sowing to control weeds.
