Correct method of sowing and preparation of soil
Always plant cowpea seeds in friable soil with good drainage. By adding rotten cow dung or compost to the soil, plants get adequate nutrition. Sow the seeds about 1 to 2 inches deep and space the plants far enough apart to give them room to spread. If you are planting a vine variety, then make arrangements for support in the beginning itself.
