Toxin free farming of Garlic
Land and farm preparation: For the garlic crop, loamy or sandy soil, with water logging is most appropriate. The PH should be between 6-7. The humidity of the soil should be more, which helps in the better development of the bulbs, which ultimately improves the total produce. Thus, before garlic crop, you should take one green fertilizer crop in the field. While preparing the field, with plough, pulverize the soil. Later, put 50-60 quintal of rotten cow dung fertilizer or 2000 liter bio gas slurry in the field and plough it again. Following these steps, level the ground.
Sowing of garlic: The garlic is sown with dribbling method. During sowing, the inter-distance between lines is 15 cms while that of plant is 7 cms. For one acre of land, 200 kgs of garlic seeds are sufficient. During sowing, cloves should be separated from the knots and these cloves are sown. In the ground areas, the owing of garlic starts in the first week of October while in the Southern region, the sowing can be done till November end. For the healthy and fast germination, after sowing, general irrigation should be done.
The Patanjali Yogpeeth recommended varieties Though, most of the species of garlic sown are local but Patanjali Toxinfree departments recommends Pink garlic (gulabi lehsun) as it is used for medicinal purpose. Though, many advance varieties too have come to the market, which give better produce. CO-2: The farmers could use this variety, which is the best for artificial farming. Its bulbs are white and attractive. The variety is much popular in South India. Yamuna Safed (G-1): This variety is the best for the farmers of north India. Its total diameter is of 4.5 cms diameter and one fruit has 25-30 cloves. The Patanjali Toxinfree Agriculture department has received 64 quintals of garlic, per acre. Agrifound White: This variety is also useful for the toxin free farming. This is of 4 cms diameter and every fruit has 20-25 healthy cloves. It could be produced 55-60 quintals per acre.
The natural fertilizer in the garlic crop The use of natural fertilizer in the garlic crop ensures proper development of the bulbs and the cloves has better proportion of alkalide. In the garlic crop, the farmers should essentially use Sanjeevak fertilizer or Bio-gas slurry. For the first time, 1500 liter bio-gas slurry or Sanjeevak fertilizer should be given 35 days after the sowning, at the time of irrigation. Second time, 1000 biogas slurry or Sanjeevak fertilizer @ per acre should be given 60 days after sowing. Then, finally when bulbs start developing, sprinkle 2 liter Patanjali sulfar and 2 liter Patanjali zinc, which betters the total production. Potash has much importance in the garlic crop as till the garlic is not taken out, the plant continues absorbing potash. So, when the crop completes 80-85 days, supply Jeevamrit, 10 kg capacity on the crops, after an interval of 15 days. Or Potash of Patanjali Research Institute, 30 grams per acre could also be used 2-3 times in the farm. This process improves the production miraculously.

Prominent diseases and treatment At the research farm of Patanjali Toxinfree Agriculture department, only two diseases were seen, which are described below.The Green insect: This insect is of green colour, which hides in the upper layer of the soil in day time. It cuts the garlic plant from the surface, thus damaging the entire plant.
Treatment: The natural insecticide Nimbadi is the best medicine for the treatment of this disastrous insect. For every acre garlic crop, take 3 liter Nimbadi insecticide and mix in 40 liters of water and sprinkle in the evening. After sprinkling the insecticide, also spray ‘havan’ ash or ‘neem wood’ ash. This ash deposits on the plant and the insect fails to damage the plant.
‘Jhulsa’ (charring) disease: This disease is common in garlic crop, which damages the total produce badly. The plant dries and damages finally.
Treatment: To keep the crop safe from the disease, take 10 liters of Patanjali natural insecticide Nimbadi and add 400 ml of Patanjali Abhimanyu to it. Mix this combination in 60 liters of water and spray once a week for 2 weeks continuously. This keeps the crops safe from `jhulsa` disease completely. Dengue Treatment in Ayurveda
