Symptoms of early blight appear on the stem, leaves and potato tubers.
Initial symptoms appear as small 1-2 mm black or brown lesions on leaves.
The lesions become larger under favourable environmental conditions. Lesions more significant than 10 mm in diameter often have deep rings. As the lesions progress, entire leaves become chlorotic.
Lesions on stems are often sunken. This may result in the death of the plant.
Severely infected leaves turn yellow and drop. Infected tubers show brown, corky dry rot.
Control measures:
For the control of this disease, Spray NovaCrust (Azoxystrobin 11% + Tebuconazole 18.3% SC) @ 300 ml or Carmanova (Carbendazim 12% + Mancozeb 63% WP) @ 700 gm + Novamaxx (Gibberellic Acid 0.001 % L) 300 ml + Silicomaxx gold 50ml per acre @ 150 to 200 litres of water.
The right time for nursery raising is from the last week of December to February. For planting in a one-acre area, a 40-square-meter nursery area is required.
For good germination of seeds and good growth of plants, it is necessary to have friable soil.
Which should be rich in organic matter, and well-drained loam soil with a pH range of 6.5-7.5.
Do one ploughing with soil turning plough and do 2-3 ploughing with the help of a harrow. and remove other unwanted materials present in the field.
If there is less moisture in the soil, first do light irrigation, then prepare the field.
And in the last, level the field by using the leveller.
To protect the seeds from seed and soil-borne diseases like damping off, sow them after treating with Combat (Trichoderma viride 1.00 % WP) @ 4 gm or Monas Curb (Pseudomonas fluorescens 1.00 % WP) @ 10 gm per kg of seed.
After land preparation, apply FYM – 10 kg + Speed Kompost 200 gm + Maxxroot – 50 gm + DAP – 1 kg, and mix them all evenly in a 40 square meter nursery area.
Seed rate – 80 to 100 grams of seed is sufficient per acre.
And sow the seeds in the prepared bed, and do light irrigation with the help of a watering can.

In this disease, irregularly shaped water-soaked spots are formed on the leaves, which causes the early fall of leaves. Due to these spots, a brown layer is formed on the leaves which affects the photosynthesis process of the plant.
As the process of photosynthesis is affected, the plants are unable to produce food, stunting the plant’s growth and the plant dries prematurely.
White growth develops under the surface of the leaves, on the stem and nodes, at these points, the stem breaks and the plant falls. In tubers, purplish-brown spots spread over the entire surface when cut, and rusty brown necrosis appears from the affected tuber surface to the centre.
Chemical Treatment:- Azoxystrobin 11% + Tebuconazole 18.3% SC @ 300 ml or Kasugamycin 5% + Copper Oxychloride 45% WP @ 300 g or Tebuconazole 10% + Sulfur 65% WG @ 500 g or Metalaxyl 4% + Mancozeb 64%WP @ Spray 600 gm or Tebuconazole 50% + Trifloxystrobin 25% wg @ 150 ml per acre.
Biological treatment:- Use Pseudomonas fluorescens @ 250 gm/acre.

For paddy transplantation, while preparing the main field, 1 or 2 days before ploughing, apply FYM @ 4 Ton Speed Compost @ 4 kg Combat – Trichoderma viride 1.0 % WP @ 2 kg per acre evenly with fertiliser, and fill the field with water and allow the water to soak.
Keep the depth of water at 2.5 cm at the time of ploughing. For paddy crop, first ploughing should be done with soil turning plough and 2-3 ploughing should be done with a cultivator, after After this, puddle the field and make it uniform, due to which the normal depth of water is maintained in the area.
Nutrition management: On the transplanting day in mud add Urea- 20 kg SSP- 50 kg, DAP- 25 kg, MOP- 20 kg, and Paddy Samriddhi Kit- 11 kg, Ingredients included in the kit (Tri-Coat Max @ 4 kg TB3 – @ 3 kg Taba G @ 4 kg) mix all these together and spread evenly on the one-acre area. Also for planting the seedling, keep row to row and plant to plant distance of 20 x 15 cm.
Even in the rabi season, direct sowing of paddy is done by puddle soil in many places. So let’s know how to prepare the field and germinate and treat the seeds before sowing!
How to germinate paddy seed
First of all, the variety that has been chosen for sowing, immerse it in water in a vessel, stir it well after immersing it, so that the bad seed will float on top, take out the bad seed from the vessel, and Soak the seed for 18 – 20 hours in water and kept in shade, after completion of 18 to 20 hours, take out the paddy in gunny bags or clean cotton cloth, and as a seed treatment, apply Sprint (Carbendazim 25% + Mancozeb 50% WS) @ 35 gm per 10 kg of seed, broadcast evenly and mix well in the seed, and cover well with a straw or gunny bag, to maintain proper moisture, Keep spraying light water from time to time so that germination is good. On getting sufficient moisture and temperature, good germination will take place in 24 hours. Then after levelling it, sow it evenly in the prepared land. And if there is excess water in the field, remove it from the field.
Field preparation
For wet direct seeding of paddy, at the time of field preparation, 2 days before ploughing, FYM @ 4 Ton + Speed Kompost @ 4 kg + Combat – Trichoderma viride 1.0 % WP @ 2 kg per acre broadcast uniformly And fill the field with water and let to soak.
Keep the depth of water at 2.5 cm at the time of ploughing. For paddy crops, do first ploughing with soil turning plough and do 2-3 ploughing with a cultivator. Puddled the field well and level the field by using a leveller.
In the mud on the day of sowing, SSP- 50 kg + DAP- 25 kg + MOP- 20 kg + Paddy Samridhhi Kit – 11 kg, contains in the kit (Tri-Coat Maxx @ 4 kg + TB-3 @ 3 kg + Taba G – @ 4 kg), all mixed together and broadcast uniformly in one-acre area, mix the manure well in the mud by using a leveller and sow the seeds as well as drain out the excess water.
Benefits of sowing
25% of labour is saved in this.
It gets ready by ripening 7 to 10 days earlier than the planting method.
There is no need to raise a nursery and transplant, in direct sowing.

Land preparation: For sowing watermelon and Muskmelon, sandy and sandy loam soil are best. For the good growth and root development of the plants, it is necessary for the soil to be friable. Generally, the first ploughing is done with soil turning plough and after that, apply FYM @ 4 Ton + Speed Kompost 4 kg + Neem cake @ 100 kg, per acre evenly in the field. And do 2-3 ploughing with the help of a harrow. Remove other unwanted material present in the field, if the moisture in the soil is less, then irrigate first, then prepare the field, and at last make the field level by level.
Nutrient management: At the time of crop transplanting/ sowing, DAP 50 kg + Boronated SSP Granular 75 kg + MOP 75 kg + Multi Zinc (Zinc Sulphate 10 kg) + Magnesium Sulphate 10 kg + Watermelon/Muskmelon Samriddhi Kit – TB3 (NPK Consortia) @ 3 kg + Taba G (Zinc Solubilizing Bacteria) @ 4 kg + Tri-Coat Maxx (Seaweed, Amino, Humic) @ 4 kg + Combat (Trichoderma viride 1.0 % WP) @ 2 kg, @ 13 kg, mix all together and broadcast evenly one acre.

The leaves turn yellow at the base and wither and fall.
Roots and buds – covered with a fluffy white mycelium
The affected bud becomes watery, and the outer layer cracks as the bud dry and shrivels.
Eventually, small brown and black sclerotia/fungi develop on the affected parts of the bud or within the tissue.
Control measures
To prevent this, crop rotation should be adopted.
The infected plant should be destroyed.
And as a soil treatment around the plants, Dhanustin (Carbendazim 50% WP) @ 15 gm (according to the Directorate of onion and garlic research) or Carmanova (Carbendazim 12% + Mancozeb 63% WP) @ 15 gm (Indian Institute of horticultural research) 30 grams + Maxx-root @ 10 gm/15 litres of water, Drenching or deep spraying near the root zone of the plants so that the water reaches the roots of the plants.

Mustard is a major oilseed crop, its production can be increased if certified varieties are selected for sowing. Let us know which are the certified seed varieties of mustard this time.
Pioneer 45S46: It is a high-yielding variety with coarse grain and better oil production. It is famous among farmers as a hybrid variety with medium maturity. It is a black-seeded hybrid variety. Its maturity period is 125-130 days.
ADV 414: It is a high-yielding and medium-maturity hybrid variety with thick grain and high oil production. Gives up to 20% higher yield than other varieties. The maturity period of this variety is 120 to 125 days.
Shriram 1666: The maturity period of this mustard variety is about 120 to 130 days. This variety is used in both irrigated and non-irrigated areas. Its yield is less in non-irrigated areas. This variety can be easily grown in 1 to 2 waters. The variety can easily give a yield of 10 to 12 quintals per acre in irrigated areas and 8 to 10 quintals per acre in non-irrigated areas. But this variety can yield more than 12 quintals.
