Seed balls are being made for many years, so far more than 10 thousand plants have been planted
So far, plants have been grown from more than 10 thousand seed balls, this year 3 thousand seed balls have been prepared which will be distributed. In view of the oxygen crisis, environmental lover Prahlad Vyas of Dhar district and his family have started breathing for the generations to come. They are preparing thousands of seed balls before the rainy season so that these seeds take the shape of small plants in the rainy season and become a source of oxygen in large quantities. Working towards environmental protection, the whole family is involved in making seed balls. Vyas told that this year one thousand seed balls will be prepared and kept in empty places, which will become a plant after getting soaked in rain water and later it will become a tree.
Know how seed ball is prepared
The first thing to do to prepare a seed ball is to collect the seeds. Mixing equal quantity of cow dung with fertile soil is prepared and moistened. It is made in the form of laddu and closed by putting seeds in the middle. It is dried by keeping it in such a place where the rays of the sun cannot reach. This is done so that the seed does not germinate even after being in the middle of the wet soil due to lack of sunlight. When the seed ball is completely dry, it is released during the rainy season in the vacant places of its choice. Once the soil is moist, the seed will germinate and new plants will form.
