Causes and diagnosis of fruit cracking in tomato crop

27/02/2025Posted on
Causes and diagnosis of fruit cracking in tomato crop

In tomato crops, fruit cracking is a physical disorder and it usually appears at the time of maturity. In this disorder, the fruits split in two ways, vertical and circular.

Fruit cracking in tomato crops is mainly due to two reasons, the first reason is irregular irrigation in the crop like the land that is dry for a long time and sudden heavy irrigation. And the second reason is the deficiency of a Boron micronutrient in the soil.

Diagnosis of fruit cracking: To avoid this problem, irrigate the crop in a balanced way from time to time. And for the boron nutrient supplements, spray Rich Bor (Boron 20%) @ 1-1.5 gm per litre of water or Rich Boramin-CA (Amino Acid, Boron, Calcium) @ 2-3 ml per litre of water.

Know the reasons and prevention measure for small fruits dropping in gourd crop

The farmers cultivating gourds often face the problem of small fruits turning yellow and drying up, and this causes a huge loss in yield.

Causes of small fruit drop:

  • Fruits start falling due to fungal diseases in plants.

  • This problem can also occur when there is an outbreak of pests in the crop.

  • Small gourd fruits start falling even if there is irregular irrigation or lack of irrigation in the crop.

  • Unbalanced use of fertilizers also results in fruit drop.

  • Small fruits start falling due to improper pollination.

Initial symptoms of small fruit drop:

In the initial stage, the flowers attached to the small fruits start drying up, and gradually the small fruits start turning yellow and brown in colour. And later the fruits dry up completely and fall off.

Preventions:

  • Inspect the crop from time to time.

  • Make proper arrangements for drainage in the field.

  • Do not use excessive irrigation and fertilizers.

  • If symptoms of fungal diseases or fruit flies and sucking insects appear, do proper spraying for control.

Symptoms and control of powdery mildew disease in watermelon

23/02/2025Posted on
Symptoms and control of powdery mildew disease in watermelon

The disease causes a white powdery growth on the upper leaves, stems and young growing parts of plants, and as the infection progresses, the entire leaf becomes covered with the fungus. The leaves of infected plants start falling prematurely. If the infection occurs at the fruiting stage, the fruits remain underdeveloped and become malformed.

Control: To control the disease spray, Novacone (Hexaconazole 5% SC) @ 400 ml per acre in 150-200 litres of water as soon as the symptoms appear. Also, take a spray of Nutriful Max (fulvic acid amino acid trace component) @ 250 ml per acre for good flower and fruit development.
