"282354 Use of Khativel against Gandhati Con-sumption
Consumption of Gandhati (Lantana camara) causes skin allergy and constipation among animals. This makes them uncomfortable. Dineshbhai uses medicine prepared by mixing 500g of crushed Khativel (Ampelocissus africana) roots, water, 500g cooking oil and 100-200ml of Aritha water. It is given to the affected animal over next two days.

Khativel is a root vegetable, similar to Yam with fruits like grape clusters and leaves like those of beans. During monsoons, the plant comes out like a creeper.

282355 Aloe Vera and Dhatura for White Grab
Chemical fertilizers are not cost-effective for farmers therefore, Virabhai introduced various methods using Aloe vera and Dhatura to protect groundnuts from the white grab.
Method 1: Aloe vera leaves (2Kg) and Dhatura leaves/fruit (1kg) are mixed with Groundnut crop.
Method 2: Small pieces of Aloe vera leaf and Dhatura are mixed with 8litres of water and stored in a plastic container for eight days. Then the mixture is filtered. 1litre of the mixture diluted with 15litres of water is sprayed at the ground-level in Groundnut crop. The procedure should be repeated twice with a day’s interval. From this method, a reduction of white grab on groundnut crop could be noticed without any side effects. This increases the growth promotion activity of groundnut crop.
Method 3: For pest control, 1.5kg of leaves of each Karen, Neem, Dhaturo and aloe vera are mixed to 2litres of sour buttermilk and 8litres of water. The mixture is packed for eight days in a plastic container. Afterwards, it is filtered and 500ml of this mixture is diluted with 15litres of water. The procedure is repeated twice in 6-7 days. The method can control Heliothis and caterpillar attack. Spray in morning for good results.
