Treatment of downy mildew disease in garlic and onion crop

  • In garlic and onion crops, this disease is caused by a fungus called Peronospora destructor.

  • The symptoms of this disease can be easily seen in the morning when the dew has frozen on the leaves.

  • The hallmark of this disease is a purple hairy growth on the surface of leaves and seed stalks.

  • The plant remains dwarfed due to the outbreak of this disease.

  • The leaves become light green. Gradually the leaves turn from pale yellow to dark brown and dry up.

  • Tubers infected with diseased plants are small in size and their storage period is also reduced.

  • To manage this disease, spray Azoxystrobin 23% SC @ 200 ml/acre or Azoxystrobin 11% + Tebuconazole 18.3% SC @ 300 ml/acre.

Farmers will get 42,000 rupees annually- know the whole process

Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi

You would know that under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana, farmers get ₹6000 annually in three installments. But perhaps you would not know about the annual 36000 rupees received as pension under this scheme.

Actually, with the opening of an account under the PM Kisan Yojana, registration is also done automatically in the PM Kisan Manadhan Yojana. Under the PM Kisan Maandhan Yojana, 3 thousand rupees are given as a pension to farmers above 60 years of age. In this way, there is a benefit of at least 36 thousand rupees as a pension in a year.

The farmers get 6 thousand rupees from PM Kisan Yojana. At the same time, a contribution of ₹55 per month and a maximum ₹200 goes into the pension scheme. Thus, the maximum contribution in the year is ₹2400 and the minimum contribution is ₹660. Now reduce the maximum contribution from ₹6 thousand to ₹2400, then ₹3600 will be left in the PM Kisan Yojana account.

By this process, when you are over 60 years of age, then you will get a pension of 3 thousand rupees every month, as well as 3 installments of 2 thousand rupees. In this way, after the age of 60 years, farmers will be able to take a total benefit of 42 thousand rupees annually.
