Soil Health and Soil Application of Micronutrients: What Every Farmer Should Know
Yield problems often begin below the ground. A soil test and a smart soil application plan can fix hidden deficiencies before the crop shows symptoms.

Navasiri Soil Star
Soil · Navamitraa Agri Tech, Hyderabad, Telangana
Key takeawaysముఖ్యాంశాలుमुख्य बातें
- Soil test results should guide fertiliser and micronutrient decisions.
- Continuous cropping removes micronutrients every season.
- Soil application builds a reserve; foliar spray gives quick correction.
- Navasiri Soil Star and Zinc 33% (Soil) are applied at 5-10 kg per acre as per label.
- Organic matter improves nutrient availability and soil structure.
What makes soil healthy?
- Balanced pH, neither too acidic nor too alkaline.
- Good organic matter and active soil life.
- Adequate major nutrients and micronutrients.
- Good drainage and aeration.
Why micronutrients become deficient
Crops take up zinc, boron, iron, manganese and other trace elements every season. If these are not replaced, the soil slowly runs low. High-yielding varieties, intensive cropping and heavy use of major fertilisers speed up this problem.

How to collect a soil sample
- Take small samples from 8-10 spots in a zig-zag pattern across the field.
- Dig to plough depth, mix well and keep about half a kilogram.
- Avoid bunds, manure heaps and wet spots.
Where to get it tested
Government soil testing labs, agricultural universities and the Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK) near you offer testing, often at low cost.
Soil application vs foliar spray
When soil application works best
Before sowing or transplanting, or as a top-up in the first weeks of the crop, to build a reserve that lasts through the season.
When foliar spray works best
When symptoms are already visible or when soil conditions such as high pH make soil uptake poor.
Navasiri soil application products
Apply evenly on moist soil, avoid heaps, and follow the label for the crop stage.
- Navasiri Soil Star: corrects micronutrient deficiency and balances nutrients, 5-10 kg per acre.
- Navasiri Zinc 33% (Soil): controls zinc-deficiency disorders such as little leaf and Khaira, 5-10 kg per acre.
- Bhusiri Gold: seaweed, humic and fulvic acid granules, 8 kg per acre.
FAQs: Soil Health and Soil Application of Micronutrients
How often should I test my soil?
Testing every one to two years is a good habit, and it is especially useful before changing crops or after seeing repeated problems such as yellowing, poor flowering or low yield. Always take samples at the same depth and season so you can compare results over time.
Can I apply micronutrient granules along with farmyard manure?
Yes, mixing with well-decomposed organic matter or sand can help spread small quantities evenly across the field. Avoid mixing with raw, undecomposed manure and keep the mix moist but not wet before application.
Is soil application enough, or do I still need sprays?
Soil application builds a base reserve. If the crop still shows deficiency symptoms, a foliar spray gives faster correction. Many farmers use both: a soil application at the start and sprays at critical stages such as flowering.
