What causes black scarf disease in potatoes

  • Black scarf disease in potato plants is caused by a fungus called Rhizoctonia solani.  This disease can appear at any stage in potato plants.

  • This disease occurs due to sudden changes in weather, due to high temperature and humidity, this disease progresses very fast.

  • Due to this disease, black raised spots appear on the plants. 

  • Potato tubers also show signs of this disease, making such tubers inedible.

  • For prevention of this disease use Kasugamycin 5% + Copper Oxychloride 45% WP @ 300 gm or Chlorothalonil 75% WP@ 300 gm or Tebuconazole 25.9% EC@ 200 ml/acre. 

  • For seed treatment use Thiophanate Methyl 45% + Pyraclostrobin 5% FS at 2 ml per kg seeds before sowing.
