Organic Pesticides: Natural Solutions for Crop Protection

To ensure the effectiveness and safety of home-made organic pesticides, apply them during cooler times of the day, such as early morning or late afternoon, to prevent crop damage. Here are several natural remedies to control pests in your crops:

1. Garlic Extract
Crush fresh garlic and mix with hot water. Allow the mixture to cool for two hours, then spray it on your crops to manage aphids effectively.

2. Mexican Sunflower (Tithonia)
Crush 2 kg of Tithonia leaves and soak them in 4 liters of warm water for 2–3 hours (or in cold water for two days). Use this solution to control caterpillars.

3. Thorn Apple (Datura stramonium)
Combine 1 kg of leaves, fruits, and branch stems. Crush them, boil in 4 liters of water for 20 minutes, and let the mixture cool. Spray it to combat scale insects, aphids, and leaf miners (Tuta absoluta).

4. Pawpaw Leaf Extract
Crush 1 kg of fresh green pawpaw leaves and boil in 4 liters of water for 20 minutes. Allow the solution to cool before spraying it on crops to manage scale insects and aphids.

5. Wood Ash
Burn maize combs to produce dry ash. Scatter this ash around the base of plants, especially vegetable seedlings, to deter cutworms in fields prone to cutworm infestations.

6. Hot Pepper Spray
Crush 500 grams of ripe hot pepper fruits and mix with 5 liters of water. Boil the mixture for 20 minutes, strain, and dilute with an additional 5 liters of water. Add 50 ml of mild dish soap (non-detergent) before spraying to control ants (termites), aphids, flies, and caterpillars.

7. Lantana Camara Ash
Collect branches and leaves of Lantana camara and burn them to create ash. Broadcast this ash across affected areas to eliminate ants and worms.

These organic solutions are simple, effective, and environmentally friendly alternatives for managing pests on your crops. Implementing them not only helps protect your plants but also promotes sustainabl

Understanding Rabbit Reproductive Physiology

To successfully breed rabbits, it's important to comprehend their reproductive physiology.

💥Rabbits are known for their high fertility rates and short gestation periods.

💎Females, called , are induced ovulators, meaning they release eggs in response to mating....

💎 Male rabbits known as buck, have a unique reproductive anatomy.

Female rabbit /Doe- get to best maturity and puberty stage at the age of 4 months-6 months depending on the breed

The bigger the breed , the longer the maturity stage.

Male rabbit /Buck get totally mature for mating from 5 month old above

For me

I will recommend:
Let your doe be
5-6 months before crossing

Buck be 7-8 months before crossing

Understanding the reproductive cycle and the optimal breeding age for rabbits will help maximize breeding success.

Does it mean Does can't get pregnant before the age of 4 months ?

It can

But the survival of the kits is NOT CERTAIN

IT CAN ;
-K1LL THEM
-EAT THEM
-SLEEP ON THEM
-REFUSE TO BREADSFEED THEM AND MANY OTHER THING...

Why?

Parental instinct of rabbit is not a follow come, it develops with maturity

And it starts earlier after 3 months old and keep growing

So by now you should know the best age your does and buck should be before crossing/mating them

I do use cross interchangeably with mate...but they mean different thing o

-Cross: mating two rabbits that are of diff breeds(like mating hyla and chinchilla)

-Mate: means allowing two rabbits to do the do(sexual copulation).

So mate is a general term for making rabbit copulate....

Did your Rabbit successfully Mate?

Most pregnant rabbits will exhibit some signs after few days of successful mating. You’ll likely notice behavioural changes as she becomes defensive and territorial.

She may growl and refuse to be stroked. She will add weight as the kids grow in her, you’ll notice enlargement of her ni***es in prep for suckling.

If you can palpate, you will definitely feel the kids in the stomach.

She will be quite tired hence you will notice abit of over relaxing or sleeping almost all the time.

The Doe builds a nest when she is pregnant, usually a few days before birth, However don't be surprised if your doesnot do so. Some.have peculiar behaviours.

Nest prep involves burrowing and lining the nest with fur she has pulled out from her flanks, dewlap and belly. This also exposes her ni***es ready for nursing.

Some farmers use nest boxes, while.others have several ways of welcoming the new borns., provided it gives your rabbit and her kits with a cosy hideout at that early age.

The gestation period for a rabbit is 30 days and litter sizes range from as low as 2 to as high as 15 kits (baby rabbits).

Birth (referred to as kindling) is usually quick, lasting just a few hours.
