Manuring
& Fertilization
Patchouli requires rich soil in order to obtain
proper yield and better quality of oil. Normally,
a basal dose of 25 kg N, 50 kg P2O5
and 50 kg K2O per hectare is given
in the form of Urea, Superphosphate and Muriate
of potash. After about two months, 25 kg N as
urea is applied. Likewise, for each harvest 50
kg N is applied in two split doses, the first
dose just after the harvest and the other about
two months later. In total, 150 kg N per hectare
per year is applied to the crop.
