• By broadcasting (chhatta): 4 kg per acre (four 1 kg packs)

📅 Sowing Time

• Last week of September to 15 November

🚜 How to Sow

• Prepare a fine, moist, well-levelled seedbed. Ajwain seed is very small and its germination is comparatively low, so a fine seedbed matters
• Sow very shallow, not deeper than about half an inch (1 cm). Seed sown too deep will not emerge
• For line sowing, keep the row distance about 1.5 ft (45 cm)
• For even broadcasting, mix the seed with fine dry sand or soil
• Seedlings emerge in about 10 to 12 days under good moisture

💧 Irrigation and Crop Care

• Give light irrigation as needed. Avoid waterlogging
• Keep the field weed-free in the early stage with hoeing (godi)
• Ajwain is sensitive to frost, so sow at the recommended time

⏱️ Crop Duration and Harvest

• The crop matures in about 4 to 5 months. Autumn sowing is usually harvested around March to April
• Harvest gently. The seed heads shatter easily, and seed that falls to the ground is very hard to collect
• After cutting, dry the plants in the shade for several days, then thresh and clean the seed

📊 Expected Yield

• With irrigation and good management, about 10 to 15 maunds per acre (company guidance)
• Under rainfed conditions yields are much lower (research reports roughly 4 to 6 maunds per acre)

🌾 Suitable Soil

Fertile, well-drained loam is best. Sandy, saline (kallar), waterlogged or very poor soils are not suitable.
