Potash i.e. potassium is one of the essential nutrient elements required by the plant for plant growth. It helps plants use water and resist drought and enhances yield.
Arhar contains a good amount of potassium, iron, iodine and essential amino acids which make it a good and healthy food supplement.
During the cultivation of arhar, about 40 - 60 kg/ha of potash is required for good quality yield.
