The proteins immediately paralyze their digestive system. The worms stop feeding within hours and die completely, keeping your yield entirely safe.✨ Key Features & Benefits☁️ Large & Uniform Bolls: Consistently produces big, heavy bolls weighing approximately 6.0 grams each, which drastically multiplies your final Kapas weight per acre. �� Semi-Erect & Open Plant: The plant architecture allows for maximum sunlight penetration and excellent air circulation, reducing humidity-related diseases in the lower canopy.��️ High Sucking Pest Resistance: Bred to exhibit strong natural tolerance to early-season sucking pests, drastically reducing the number of chemical pesticide sprays needed. ✂️ Fluffy & Easy Picking: The bolls feature excellent bursting characteristics, opening fully to make manual picking incredibly fast, easy, and labor-efficient. ⏳ Fast Boll Retention: Demonstrates high boll retention with a short inter-boll distance, allowing the plant to set a heavy crop load in a shorter period. �� Agronomic Recommendations & Sowing DetailsStandard Seed Packet Size: 475 Grams �� Sowing Parameter⚖️ RecommendationSeed RateApprox. 2 to 3 Packets per AcreSowing Depth2 to 3 cmSoil TypeHighly adaptable; performs beautifully across all soil typesIdeal Spacing (Rainfed)3 x 2 ft (90 x 60 cm)Ideal Spacing (Irrigated)4 x 2 ft (120 x 60 cm)�� PRO-TIP FOR MAHARASHTRA FARMERS: Mahyco Jungee is highly adaptable to all soil types, making it a stellar performer across the diverse fields of Amravati and the broader Vidarbha belt. Because it sets heavy 6.0g bolls quickly in a semi-erect structure, ensure you apply a balanced basal dose of NPK during dibbling, and follow up with a foliar spray of a specialized Cotton Tonic or 0:52:34 at the peak square formation stage to maximize boll retention and weight! ��️ Safety & Farming PrecautionsRefuge Planting is Mandatory: To prevent pink bollworms from developing resistance, it is a legal requirement to plant non-Bt (Refuge) cotton seeds around the borders of your main field.Seed Treatment: Soak the seeds in water for a short duration before sowing to ensure rapid and uniform germination. Integrated Pest Management (IPM): While highly resistant, continue to monitor your fields weekly. Apply targeted insecticides only if sucking pest populations cross the Economic Threshold Level (ETL).
