Important tips for Azolla cultivation

Azolla rapidly grows on azolla bed so maintain Azolla biomass 300 gms – 350 gms /sq.meter  hence harvest daily to avoid overcrowding.

Add once in 5 days mixture of Super Phosphate, and cow dung also add mixture containing magnesium, iron, copper,

Sulfur etc. at weekly intervals to enhance the mineral content of Azolla.

Replace 25 to 30% old water with fresh water, once in 10 days; it helps to prevent nitrogen build up in the pond.

Replace complete water and soil, at least once in six months and then add Fresh Azolla seeds.

Maintain the water level of at least 10 cm, so Azolla root doesn’t grow in the soil by keeping the roots floating it becomes easy to harvest.
