The farmers who have decided to start bio-farming and other farmers who prefer to adopt local methods to reduce cost of farming should start preparations to make bio-pesticides. Soyabean and other main important crops of Kharif crops are attacked by several types of insects. Since the number of insects is very large, they should be controlled to save the crops. The bio-pesticides prepared to destroy these insects are made mainly of local plants or household goods. For getting this bio pesticide effective the farmers should take special care in preparation of these pesticides as early as possible.

One effective bio-pesticide is prepared with cow urine. The cow urine should be kept in a glass bottle and kept outside in the sun for 20 to 25 days. After that it can be mixed in a spray pump at the ratio of 150 to 200 milliliter per 15 liter water. This quantity is sufficient enough for spraying in an area of one hectare of crops to control all types of insects. Another insecticide is mixing 20 kg of leaves of neem tree in 200 litre of water, mix it well or boil it and spray on the crops in an area of one acre. This will destroy green mosquitoes and other insects. Fill buttermilk in an earthen pot, cover it, put it in a deep pit and cover it with soil. Take out the pot after 20 to 25 days. This is a good pesticide. It can be mixed with water and spray on the plants attacked by insects. This is a sure method of destroying the insects. Likewise, insecticides can be prepared with the leaves of besharam, karanj, sitaphal etc. The capacity of bio pesticides to destroy insects increases with the passage of time. The above methods are issued by the agriculture and farmer welfare department in the interest of the farmers who are intended to start bio-farming and use bio-insecticides in place of chemical pesticides which are readily available in the market.
