Outbreak of downy mildew will cause heavy loss in cucumber crop

Outbreak of downy mildew will cause heavy loss in cucumber crop

  • Symptoms of downy mildew are confined to the leaves and their appearance varies widely among cucurbit species. On most species, lesions are first visible on the upper leaf surface as small, irregular to angular, slightly chlorotic areas.

  • Symptoms appear first on older leaves and progress to younger leaves as they expand.

  • When conditions (leaf wetness and humidity) favour sporulation, the production of fruiting bodies (sporangia) on the lower leaf surface gives the undersides of the lesions a downy appearance, varying in colour from light grey to deep purple.

  • Lesions can coalesce and result in large areas of dead tissue which exposes the fruit to sunscald. Extensive defoliation can occur when conditions are favourable.

  • For its control, apply Novaxyl (Metalaxyl 8% + Mancozeb 64% WP) @ 1 kg/acre or Jatayu (Chlorothalonil 75% WP) @ 300 g/acre.

The outbreak of maggot will increase in onions, this is how to protect

29/08/2024Posted on
The outbreak of maggot will increase in onions

  • Onion maggot is a very small white colored insect and it causes a lot of damage to onion tubers.

  • In large tubers, 9 to 10 maggots attack simultaneously and make it hollow. Due to this, onion bulb rots completely.

  • Symptoms of its infestation appear as wilting and yellowing of leaves, after which the leaves start falling. Leaves may rot and plants may die as infestations progress.

  • Onion plants are most vulnerable during the seedling stage, and seedlings can be killed by larval feeding.

  • These insects can cause damage to the onion crop throughout the crop cycle, although they are widely known to frequently infect the crop during the vegetative stage.

  • If the attack of this pest occurs in the last stage of the crop, then due to this the possibility of storage rot problem increases.

  • To control maggots in Onion, use Caldan 4G (Cartap Hydrochloride) @ 7.5 kg/acre or Fax GR (Fipronil 00.30% GR) 8.0 kg/acre.

Save sugarcane crop from red rot disease, know the control measures

28/08/2024Posted on
Save sugarcane crop from red rot disease

  • This fungus mainly attacks the stem and leaves of the sugarcane plant. the leaves of the upper portion of the plant become pale and dark red which ultimately droop down.

  • The stem splits and many red-coloured longitudinal streaks are formed on it. The red colouring is mainly in the vascular bundles and often in the pith.

  • At severe infection, the stem gets rotten, shrinks at internodes, and becomes dull in appearance. The pathogen attacks all the parts above the ground, but more especially the canes stems, and midribs of leaves.

  • When the diseased canes(stems) are split open, the tissues of the internodes will be found longitudinally reddened (normally white or yellowish-white) in one or more internodes.

  • This red colour is interrupted by white patches extending crosswise on the canes. In the case of true red rot, the red colour extends through many internodes.

  • To control it, remove the affected bunches at the initial stage and drench the soil with Carbendazim 50 WP (1 gram per 1 liter of water).

The deep depression formed over Gujarat has now come over Saurashtra and Kutch. Today, heavy rain activities can occur in Gujarat’s Devbhoomi Dwarka, Khambhalia, Giri, Somnath, Porbandar, Junagadh etc. districts as well as Bhuj and Nalia. Heavy rains are also expected in Pakistan’s Sindh province. Rain activities will reduce significantly in the eastern districts of Gujarat. Two low pressure areas are forming one after the other in the Bay of Bengal, whose effect will be visible on many states. A cyclonic wind area has also formed in the southwest of the Bay of Bengal, due to which rain activities may increase in Tamil Nadu including coastal Andhra Pradesh. Intermittent rain is possible in Delhi, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh.

Early blight outbreak in tomato will have serious consequences

27/08/2024Posted on
Early blight outbreak in tomato will have serious consequences

  • Symptoms of early blight usually begin after the first fruit set on tomato plants, starting with a few small, brown lesions on the lower leaves.

  • As the lesions progress, they take on the shape of target-like rings with dry, dead plant tissue in between.

  • The surrounding plant tissue turns yellow, then brown before the leaves die and drop from the plant.

  • While early blight does not directly affect the fruit, loss of protective foliage from exposure to direct sun can damage the fruit. That condition is called sun-scald.

  • Control: Novacrust (Azoxystrobin 11% + Tebuconazole 18.3% SC) @ 240-400 ml/acre or M 45 (Mancozeb75 % WP) @ 600-800 gm/acre.

Nematodes cause heavy damage to crops, know the control measures

  • Nematodes are like very thin threads. Their body is long cylindrical and the whole body is without segments.

  • Nematodes, living inside the soil, form a knot in the roots of the crop and damage the crop.

  • Biological treatment is the best solution to control this pest.

  • Soil treatment is the best way to control this pest.

  • As a chemical treatment, treat the soil with Furi (Carbofuran 3% GR) @ 10 kg/acre.

  • Before sowing the crop, apply Nematofree (Paceilomyces Linnaeus) @ 1 kg/acre mixed with 50-100 kg FYM in an empty field.

  • Whenever this product is used, keep in mind that it is contemporary in the field.
