Wilt disease is a growing soil-borne disease in soybean production areas.
It can be difficult to differentiate other diseases and wilt.
This disease is caused by cold temperatures and wet soil during early vegetative growth, plants are infected during the early reproductive stages, but symptoms appear later.
Due to wilting, there is brown discoloration in the roots and stems, and the leaf becomes chlorotic. To prevent this disease, soil treatment, and seed treatment are very important.
Fungicide is used for the prevention of this disease.
Spray Propiconazole 25% EC or Kasugamycin 5% + Copper oxychloride 45% WP @ 300 g / acre or Thiophanate methyl 70% WP 500 g / acre.
In biological treatment, use Trichoderma viride @ 500 gram / acre or Pseudomonas fluorescens @ 250 gram / acre. These fungicides are used as soil treatment and seed treatment.
In case of more problems, also use a decomposer before sowing the crop in the field.
