Importance of Boron in Cucurbit crops and symptoms of deficiency

Importance of Boron: It Stabilizes plant tissues and improves crop vigour. Boron works with calcium and also helps in increasing the quality of the crop. Along with this, Boron has a major contribution to making flowers and fruits in crops. It plays a major role in preventing flower and fruit drops and in increasing the size and quality of fruits.

Deficiency Symptoms: The younger leaves of the plant are smaller than normal and may be curled. Yellowing proceeds from the marginal area between the veins towards the centre. The youngest leaves show necrotic tips. Growing points dieback and flowering and fruit set is poor. Also, flexibility is necessary for the proper development of fruit but due to the deficiency of Boron, there is hardness in the fruit skin and due to which the cracks appear on the fruits.

Now Get Loans Up to ₹20 Lakhs Without Any Collateral – Know These 3 Key Government Schemes!

11/04/2025Posted on
Farmer registry will be necessary to get the benefit of government schemes

Millions of people in India dream of starting their own business or expanding their existing one. However, lack of funds often becomes the biggest hurdle. Most banks and financial institutions ask for collateral before approving a loan. To solve this issue and support self-employment, the Government of India has introduced several schemes that offer collateral-free loans. These initiatives aim to empower small business owners, street vendors, and traditional artisans to become self-reliant.

Here are three major government schemes that offer loans without the need for a guarantor or collateral:

1. Pradhan Mantri MUDRA Yojana (PMMY)
Ideal for individuals wanting to start or grow a small business, this scheme offers loans under three categories:

  • Shishu Loan – up to ₹50,000

  • Kishore Loan – ₹50,000 to ₹5 lakhs

  • Tarun Loan – ₹5 lakhs to ₹10 lakhs

Now, a new category ‘Tarun Plus’ has been added, which allows loans up to ₹20 lakhs without collateral—provided the previous loan was repaid on time. So far, over ₹33 lakh crore has been disbursed under PMMY. Apply online at udyamimitra.in.

2. Pradhan Mantri SVANidhi Yojana
Launched during the COVID-19 pandemic, this scheme supports street vendors like vegetable sellers, hawkers, and cart vendors. The loan is disbursed in three phases:

  • ₹10,000 in the first phase

  • ₹20,000 in the second phase (after timely repayment)

  • ₹50,000 in the third phase

The scheme also offers benefits like interest subsidies and incentives for digital transactions.

3. Pradhan Mantri Vishwakarma Yojana
This scheme is designed for traditional artisans such as carpenters, goldsmiths, blacksmiths, cobblers, masons, and others from 18 specified categories. It offers:

  • ₹1 lakh loan in the first phase

  • ₹2 lakh loan in the second phase

No collateral is required, and beneficiaries also receive training, toolkits, and subsidies. The scheme aims to promote the spirit of “Vocal for Local”.

This disease reduces the yield of green gram

11/04/2025Posted on
Molybdenum element is essential in the crop of green and black gram

  • Leaf spot disease:- Symptoms of this disease are found in all parts of the plant and its effect is very much seen on the leaves. Initially, the symptoms of the disease appear in the form of small brown boat-shaped spots, which enlarge and scorch the entire part of the leaves and the tissue dies, causing the green colour of the plant to be destroyed.

  • Cercospora leaf spot disease: – Infection of this disease first starts from the old leaves. Dark brown spots appear on the leaves with brownish-red edges, later the spots become irregularly shaped. Leaves turn yellow and fall. At the time of flowering, in severe cases, the leaves fall and the grains become shrivelled and discoloured.

  • Stem blight disease: – The disease infection appears at the time of maturity of the crop, in this disease also irregular-shaped spots appear on the leaves.

  • Blight disease: – In this disease dark brown spots appear on the leaves. Irregular spots of purple-black colour appear on the stems and red or brown on the pods. In the severe stage of the disease, the stem starts to become weak.
