*How to establish an azolla farm**

3. After 3-5 days you introduce azolla seeds
Why is Azolla good for me ? What are the benefits?
1. Azolla is a valuable protein source(20-30% crude protein), containing essential amino acids, vitamins (such as B12, beta carotene, and vitamin A), minerals (like calcium, phosphorous, potassium), and biopolymers
2. Grows rapidly once planted in a well fertilized pond ensuring food security for poultry, piggery, dairy, rabbits and fish
3. You buy seeds once since upon maturity you harvest and the remaining azolla continues to reproduce asexually by producing spores
4. Cuts down cost of production in livestock farming significantly to between 50-60%.
5. Faster growth rate.
