Coriander farming
Its good that you are planning and you need to consider the market demand, variety suitable in the environment and the demand ,water availability,soil and drainage.
After that you need to prepare you land to a fine tilth .
mix the soil with well rotten manure 5 kgs per m2
Depending with the soil test analysis add DAP 25g per m2]before planting
Make drills 20cm apart and sow the seeds singly cover lightly and mulch.
Watering- Ensure the bed is moist by watering after sowing.
Remove the mulch once the seeds have germinated.
