FAISALABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 25th Jan, 2018 ) :The agriculture experts have advised farmers to start Baharia sunflower cultivation immediately and complete it by mid of February to get bumper crop.

A spokesman for the agriculture department said here on Thursday that from January to mid February was the best suitable time for Baharia cultivation of sunflower.

Therefore, growers should immediately start sunflower cultivation and complete it by mid of February as last sowing could not only damage quality of the grain but it also caused loss in production.

He said that growers should cultivate approved sunflower varieties like Hi-sun-33, Hi-sun-39, Agora-4, NK-278, FH-331, DK-4040, G-101 and 64-A-93 because these varieties were not only disease resistant but also give bumper yield.
