Small, irregular yellow or brown spots first appear on the leaves. These spots spread with time and become deep and surround the entire leaf. Small black deep spots also appear on the fruit, which gradually spread. In moist weather, pink spores form in the center of these spots.
To prevent this disease, treat with Vitavax (Carboxin 37.5 + Thiram 37.5) 2.5 gm/kg of seed.
Spray Novaphanate (thiophanate methyl 70% WP) at 300 gm per acre or Jatayu (Chlorothalonil 75 WP) @ 400 gm per acre in 200 litres of water at an interval of 10 days.
For biological control, spray Monas Curb (Pseudomonas fluorescens) @ 500 gm/acre in 200 litres of water.

Farming in polyhouse will get many benefits, there are more benefits

03/04/2024 Wednesday April 3rd, 2024

In a polyhouse, plants can be grown in a controlled environment with less water, limited sunlight, and a minimum amount of pesticides.
In a polyhouse, plants can be grown under different conditions, which are impossible to cultivate in that particular climatic zone. For example, growing strawberries in the plains of India.
External climate does not affect the growth of crops
product quality improves.
It conserves 90% of water in vegetables, fruits and flowers, thereby increasing the shelf life of the produce
Polyhouse also provides a high concentration of Co2 to increase production to the maximum level, due to which polyhouse yield is much higher than open field cultivation.
Water is saved due to drip irrigation.
It can create the right environment for plants in any season.
With the help of polyhouse, crops can be protected from wind, rain, precipitation and other climatic factors.

Know about field preparation and nutrition management for rabi paddy cultivation!

25/12/2023 Monday December 25th, 2023

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.
