Manure supply is a vexed question in Agriculture. In many districts, particularly in Malabar the manure supply is very limited. The ryots as a class almost everywhere are very reluctant to invest money for the purchase of manure, though the fact remains that the investment of money for the proper manuring of crops is almost the best, one can think of. To quote an instance, one, Pondiat Kelu Nair of Perungulam (Kottayam Taluk) spent Rs. 10 for manuring an acre of his paddy land with fish. He got Rs. 22 worth of paddy more than the usual yield. His next door neighbour who is not a poor ryot and who has been closely watching the crop of Kelu Nayar, hen questioned why he is not copying the practice, says "Well, Sir, sh manure is good. I have no money to purchase it."
