Sowing Time Rabi, Summer, Rainy Seed Rate/ Sowing method- line sowing with row to row and plant to plant distance/ direct sowing Seed Rate: 40-50 g per acre. Sowing: Prepare the raised bed of 180x90x15cm, for 1acre 10 to 12 beds are required. The nursery should be free from weeds and debris. Line sowing is recommended. Distance between two rows: 8-10 cm (4 fingers) apart, Distance between seed to seeds : 3-4 cm ( 2 fingers), Seeds are sown in line at 0.5-1.0 cm deep Transplanting: Transplanting should be done 21-25 days after sowing. Spacing: Row to Row and Plant to Plant - 120 x 45 or 90 x 45 cm Fertilizer dose with timing Total N:P:K requirement @ 100:150:150 kg per acre. Dose & Timing: Basal Dose: Apply 33% N and 50% P, K as basal dose during final land preparation. Top Dressing: 33% N and remaining 50%P, 25% K at 30 days after transplanting and 34% N, 25% K at 50-55 days after transplanting.

Irrigation Schedule Irrigation Frequency Depends upon - A. Soil type: Light soils need more frequency. Heavy soils need less frequency. B. Crop stage: Vegetative stage: maintain adequate moisture for the development of roots. Flowering & fruiting - frequent and shallow irrigation. Harvesting - gradually reduce irrigation during harvesting C. Growing season: Summer - requires frequent irrigation. Winter- As against the summer season, in winter the irrigation frequency is longer. Rainy - very less frequency depending upon soil moisture Harvesting Harvest the fruit at the time of physiological maturity. It starts maturing by 65 -70 days after transplanting- depending on season/climate. Picking is done generally at an interval of 4-5 days. Depending on the type of market/distance -tomatoes are picked.
