Dear Pankaj
Thanks for the message. I have any way launched a massive campaign invovling farmers in
more than 3000 habitations to remove parthenium. As the biological control may take time.
I would still be interested in it as the manual removal may not make a sustainable impact.
Our job makes as learn about a variety of topics as per the demand of the situation. And
agriculture was part of our training.
Regards!

Dear Mr.Oudhia,
I ' ve already e-mailed to you with regard to "INTEGRATED POLYCULTURE FARMING
SYSTEM" and pl. see your mail box .
On going thro' your parthenium web site , I believe it is my duty to offer the solution
known to me.No doubt, parthenium is an omnipresent poisonous weed. Apart from the severe
environmental degradation of soil and agricultural lands, a lot of allergic respiratory
disorders are caused to human -beings.
It is suggested to you to try the following remedy :
With the help of BIOSANITIZER and VERMI++ (two biotechnically developed herbal paste +
vermiculture humus, in a much concentrated form) products of biotechnological innovation,
the parthenium weeds suould be burried in the compost pit along with some pure cow dung
gobar. The weeded land area should be sprayed with water in which VERMI++ is soaked for a
day or more. Such spraying should be repeated 2-3 times at an interval of one week so that
the parthenium spores do not give rise to fresh growth of plants. Repeated such treatment
is bound to result in gradual eradication of this weed, on the one hand,while on the other
hand, the composting of BIOSANITIZER + VERMI ++ treated weeds , the erstwhile liability
would transform magically into an asset of a farmer in the form of a farmyard mannure of
superior quality. Just TRY THIS once IN ONE VILLAGE and let me know the feedback.
If interested please let me know so that I shall arrange for procuring the BIOSANITIZER
and VERMI++.
Truly Yours...

Dear Mr Pankaj
Greetings!
I am Dist Collector of Anantapur (Andhrapradesh). A virsus disease has attacked groundnut
crop in 8 lakh ha. The virsus spreads through pollen of parthenium. I would like to know
more about parthenium, its effect and ways of controlling it.
Thanks in anticipation!

Dear Pankaj,
I am thankful to you for sending me mail. I would like to know the following things:
- I want to know the different contents of parthenium (%wise)
- As you said that parthenin is major obstacle in making compost does it mean that you
have prepared compost only from parthenium or you have mix parthenium with other material.
- kindly send me your compost making process report in brief.
I shall be oblige if you provide us your valuable
knowledge to keep our research going on for farmers welfare. I have visited your
site which is quite good for me.
regards ,
Ravi S. Kelkar

Dear Pankaj,
Thank you very much for your prompt reply to my request for the information on Parthenium.
I am giving you some more trouble. i would like to know whether the beetle
"Zygogramma bicolorata" has been found in wild condition from any where in
India. I would
appreciate to receive some more information on the bio-control of this weed i.e.
parthenium.
With kind regards
Sincerely yours,
Sanjay Bhatia
