Is there a problem of white powder in your moong crop, know the control measures

  • The problem of white powder in the moong crop is a symptom of powdery mildew disease.

  • The white powder appears on the leaves and other green parts, which later become light-coloured white spots. These spots gradually increase in size and become spherical, covering the lower surface as well.

  • In severe infection, the foliage turns yellow causing premature leaf loss. Disease infected plants undergo early maturation resulting in heavy yield loss.

  • Spray Hexaconazole 5% SC [Novacone] 400 ml or Myclobutanil 10% WP [Index] @ 100 gm or Azoxystrobin 11% + Tebuconazole 18.3% w/w SC [Custodia] @ 300 ml / acre in 200 litres of water at an interval of fifteen days.
