PAS 1:

"Cow urine alone is also a good liquid fertilizer and can be used directly for spraying the crop. Dilute 1 lit of cow urine with 100 lit of water and use it as foliar spray. For one acre of crop 200 lit of such dilute suspension will be sufficient. This can be used in any crop in all the seasons. Vermiwash alone or mix with cow urine is also an excellent growth promoter. Dilute one liter of vermiwash or 0.5 lit of vermiwash + 0.5 lit of cow urine in 20 lit of water and use as foliar spray. Three to four applications are needed for excellent results."
