Hi,

About how much manure and fertilizers to use, it depends on your current soil health. You must get your soil tested and follow integrated nutrient management.
Also, poultry manure is considered very good for soil. If you can get it in your village, then you should definitely use it. You will need to add around 100-150 gm of poultry manure to each plant. Do add biofertilizers for increased yields.

Do contact us if you need any more information. We support farmers with scientific techniques, to increase their farm yields.
