Weed Management in Moong Crop

Weed Management in Moong Crop

If weed control is not done at the right time in moong crops then the yield of the crop can decrease by 40-60%. It is necessary to keep the crops free from weeds between 15 to 45 days after sowing in the initial stage of the crop. Normally two weedings should be done, first within 15-20 days and second within 30-35 days so that weeds can be controlled.

For chemical management of weeds, spray Cleen Super (Pendimethalin 38.7%.CS) @ 700 ml per acre mixed with 150 – 200 litres of clean water within 72 hours of sowing.

In the standing crop of moong, when weeds like wild Amaranthus viridis, Euphorbia Spp. are at 2-3 leaf stage, then spray WeedBlock (Imazethapyr 10% SL+Surfactant) @ 300 ml per acre 10-15 days after sowing.

Know how to protect garlic crop from black mold during storage

Know how to protect garlic crop from black mold during storage

Black mold is the most important post-harvest disease in the summer season. This disease is common wherever onion and garlic are stored.

Symptoms:

Black mold is commonly seen in the maturity stage of garlic. The symptoms of this disease appear in the form of black powder between the garlic buds and on the nodes. Due to this, the price of garlic starts decreasing in the market. Also, the storage of affected bales cannot be kept for a long time.

Prevention:

  • Before storing garlic, clean and dry the cloves thoroughly.

  • Keep only well-matured, firm and healthy tubers for storage.

  • The place of storage should be moisture free and well-ventilated.

  • Tubers should not be piled in the storage area. Apart from this, tie the tubers in bunches with leaves and hang them on the ropes. Also, keep it filled in bamboo baskets.

  • Rotten tubers should be removed from time to time.

How to manage crop residue after harvest

24/03/2025Posted on
How to manage crop residue after harvest

Instead of burning the crop residues, after ploughing these crop residues with the help of a rotavator, apply water, due to which the crop residues mix with the soil. Mixing crop residues in the field gives many benefits along with increasing the fertility of the land.

Benefits of mixing crop residues in the field

  • Farmers can take advantage of organic farming by mixing crop residues in the field with the help of rotavator.

  • Biodiversity is maintained by mixing crop residues in the field itself. The beneficial insects present in the ground eat and destroy the harmful insects. The amount of organic matter in the soil increases, due to which crop production is more.

  • By mixing the residues of pulse crops in the soil, the amount of nitrogen increases, which also increases crop production.

  • Instead of burning the crop residue, the farmers will make fodder for their animals by keeping it as straw, on the one hand, they can also increase their income by selling the extra straw.

How to manage crop residue

  • Crop residues can be collected for animal feed or industrial management.

  • Paddy straw can be used for animal feed by treating it with urea/calcium hydroxide.

  • In the field with the help of straw belling machines, crop residues can be made into blocks and stored in less space, which can be used as animal feed.

  • By running a reaper machine on wheat straw we can make chaff.

  • The use of crop residues is also helpful in mushroom cultivation.
