Best Seeds for Carrots

Selecting the best carrot seeds is crucial for a successful harvest. For high germination rates, disease resistance, and uniformity in size and shape, consider the following varieties:

• Nantes: Known for their sweetness and crisp texture.
• Danvers: Ideal for heavy or clay soils.
• Chantenay: Great for shallow or rocky soils.
• Baby Carrots: Perfect for snacks and fresh eating.

Optimal Planting Time for Carrots

Planting carrots from October to November ensures the best growth conditions. During these months, soil temperature, moisture, and sunlight are optimal for seed germination and plant development.

Carrot Growth Duration

Carrots typically take 70-80 days to mature. They require well-prepared soil, consistent temperature, adequate moisture, and sunlight. Additionally, thinning the seedlings is essential to allow the roots to develop properly.

Watering Requirements for Carrots

Carrots need consistent soil moisture for proper growth. Water them deeply 1-2 times a week, particularly during dry periods, to ensure they receive sufficient moisture.

Carrot Seed Quantity per Acre

The amount of carrot seed required per acre varies based on seed size, spacing, germination rate, and desired plant density. On average, you will need about 2 kilograms of carrot seed per acre.

Carrot Yield per Acre

The yield of carrots from one acre can vary due to soil quality, climate, seed quality, and farming practices. Typically, a well-maintained acre of carrot farmland can produce around 7 to 8 tonnes of carrots.

Cost of Carrot Seeds

The cost of carrot seeds ranges from 200 to 1000 rupees per kilogram, depending on the variety, quality, and quantity of seeds purchased.
