what is the right time for applying fertelizer

[@ernestoceralvo1432]

You should show your protocol. What to apply, quantity to apply and when to apply. Don't let the farmers guess on what to do based on on your presentation. Am i clear to you?

[@sammuelsitjar.]

Are their any organic fertilizer that are equivalent to those chemical fertilizer?

Kung ibabasi natin ang pagtatanim ng hybrid palay sa 1 ektaria, anong klase ng abono at ilan kilo at ilan araw isasabog ang abono bago magtransplant? Kailan magaabono ulit at anong abono, at ilan kilo? Ano ang ilalagay pang abono pagkatapos ng ilan araw? At anong abono at ilan kilo. Kailan tamang mag spray ng insecticide? Papano ang tamang pagpapatubig? Sana huwag lang irekomenda ang ilalagay na fertilizer mas maliwanag kung sabihin anong klaseng abono sa ibat ibang growth stage ng palay at ILAN KILO sa bawat ektaria. General information ang sinasabi ninyo. Sana po be specific how many kilos we should apply for 1 hectare of fertilizer from the very beginning of before planting ang after planting up to harvesting.
