Brought 10 tonnes of Sea Salt from
Ankaleshwar and used it for all crops totally replacing Chemical Fertilizers.
Cashewnut starts yielding after 3 years. This plant treated with sea salt has profuse
flowering within just 1 year.

METHODOLOGY 1. Collect seeds from completely dried pods.2. Remove the thin white membrane.3. Grind the seeds to make a fine powder.4. Powder of 2 seeds per lit of water is required
if the water is too muddy, and powder of 1 seed for 4 lit of water is enough if the water is not very bad.
5. Add the powder in water and allow it to remain stable for one hour.
6. Filter the water with the help of a clean cloth and what you get isPurest water in the world
