Are the leaves of your moong crop shrinking, follow these measures

  • Right now, in most of the areas, moong crop is under cultivation, in which the problem of shrinking of leaves is visible. One reason for this problem can also be the outbreak of whitefly.

  • Both the young and adults of this insect suck the sap from the leaves, due to which the leaves of the plants turn downwards and the growth of the plant stops. 

  • To control white fly, spray Acetamiprid 20% SP [Novaceta] @ 100 gm or Diafenthiuron 50% WP [Pager] @ 250 gm or Pyriproxyfen 10% + Bifenthrin 10% EC [Prudens] @ 250 ml/acre.

  • Beauveria bassiana [Bave Curb] @ 250gm/acre can be used as biological treatment.

  • Along with this, the yellow sticky trap can also be installed at the rate of 10 per acre.
