How to control aphid in bottle gourd crop

19/03/2021 Monday September 25th, 2023

Aphid is under the category of sucking pests
This pest greatly affects the growth of the plant by sucking the cell sap of the bottle gourd’s leaves.
The leaves of the affected plant turn yellow and shrink. In the stage of excessive infestation, the leaves dry up and gradually the whole plant dries up.
Aphids release a type of honeydew, which causes black fungus infestation.
To control this, spray imidacloprid 17.8% SL @ 100 ml/acre or Acephate 75 % SP @ 300 gram/acre or Thiamantoxam 25% WG @ 100 gram/acre.
Use Beauveria Bassiana @ 250 gram/acre as a biological treatment.
