This document provides instructions for brewing and applying compost tea. It recommends brewing compost tea using 2 kg of vermicast, 1 kg of brown sugar or molasses, and untreated water in agitator barrels for 48-72 hours. The resulting concentrated compost tea should be diluted 1:15 with untreated water before applying as a foliar spray or soil drench twice a month or weekly for plant growth benefits like disease suppression and nutrient provision. Regular application of properly brewed and applied compost tea can improve soil properties and maximize plant health and yield.
