Farmroot Castor Cake is an organic by-product derived from the cold pressing of Castor seeds

during Castor oil extraction. This nutrient-rich material serves multiple purposes in sustainable agriculture as a soil conditioner, natural fertilizer, and bio-pesticide. Packed with essential nutrients and valued neem compounds such as azadirachtin, Farmroot Castor Cake not only enriches soil fertility but also offers effective protection against soil-borne pests and diseases.

Key Features:

  • Rich Source of Nutrients: Provides balanced NPK and organic carbon essential for crop development.
  • Natural Pesticidal Properties: Contains natural compounds such as ricin and undecylenic acid that act as bio-pesticides, repelling soil pests, nematodes, and termites.
  • Improves Soil Quality: Enhances microbial activity, soil texture, structure, and moisture retention, promoting better root growth and nutrient absorption.
  • Slow Nutrient Release: Ensures long-lasting nutrient supply, benefiting plants over an extended period.

Benefits:

  • Boosts soil fertility and microbial health
  • Acts as a natural pest and nematode repellent, reducing pesticide dependence
  • Enhances the yield and quality of produce
  • Improves soil water retention and aeration
  • Promotes robust growth in a wide range of crops

Recommended

Usage:

  • Suitable for vegetables, fruits, cereals, pulses, plantation crops, spices, flowers, and lawns.
  • Dosage is generally 100–200 kg per acre, applied 10–15 days before planting as a basal manure; it can be lightly incorporated into the surface during crop maintenance.
