Why do onion plants show tip burn problems?

10/09/2022Posted on

  • Onion is an important commercial crop grown in India. The problem of tip burn in onion crops mainly appears at the time of crop development when the crop is close to the mature stage then the process of tip burning can be natural, but in young plants, tip burn can happen due to many reasons. Possible causes include a lack of important nutrients in the soil, fungal infections, or sucking insects such as thrips, etc.

  • Apart from this, Heavy wind, excessive sunlight, excess salt in the soil and other environmental factors can also burn onion tops

Control Measures

  • For biological control, spray Brigade B (Bavaria bassiana 1.15% WP) @ 1 kg/acre @ 150 -200 liters of water.

  • To control this pest, Spray Novalaxam (Thiamethoxam 12.6% + Lambda Cyhalothrin 9.5% ZC) @ 60 ml or Jump (Fipronil 80% WG) @ 30 gm + Silicomaxx @ 50 ml + Novamaxx (Gibberellic Acid 0.001%) @ 300 ml, per acre  @ 150 to 200 liters of water.

Maize crop will be ruined by fall armyworm, save it soon

09/09/2022Posted on

  • This pest attacks at all stages of maize. Generally it attacks the leaves of maize, but in case of severe infestation, it also starts harming the corn cob. The larvae attack the upper part of the plant or the soft leaves, small holes appear on the leaves of the affected plant.

  • Newborn larvae scrape and eat the leaves of the plant, causing white stripes to appear on the leaves. As the larva grows up, it completely eats the upper leaves of the plant. Apart from this, they also eat soft leaves by entering inside of the plant. 

control measures

To control, spray Emanova (Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG) @ 80 gm or Barazide (Novaluron 5.25% + Emamectin Benzoate 0.9% SC) @ 600 ml + Silico Maxx @ 50 ml, @ 150 to 200 liters of water per acre.

How to manage thrips in onion crop

08/09/2022Posted on

  • Thrips are small and soft-bodied insects and can be found on the upper surface of leaves but usually on the lower surface of leaves. 

  • With their sharp mouthparts, they suck the sap of the leaves, which causes the leaves to turn brown on the edges. 

  • The affected plant appears dry and the leaf becomes discoloured and curls upwards. This insect is the cause of Jalebi disease in onion crops.

  • For the control of thrips it is necessary to use different chemicals for every spray.

Control Measures

  • For biological control, spray Brigade B (Bavaria bassiana 1.15% WP) @ 1 kg/acre @ 150 -200 liters of water.

  • To control this pest, Spray Novalaxam (Thiamethoxam 12.6% + Lambda Cyhalothrin 9.5% ZC) @ 60 ml or Jump (Fipronil 80% WG) @ 30 gm + Silicomaxx @ 50 ml + Novamaxx (Gibberellic Acid 0.001%) @ 300 ml, per acre  @ 150 to 200 liters of water.

Symptoms and control measures for mite damage in chilli crops

07/09/2022Posted on

Symptoms of damage

Mite infestation becomes more in September. Due to the infestation of this pest, the yield is greatly affected. These are very tiny insects that suck the sap from the lower surface of the leaves, causing the leaves to turn downwards (like an inverted boat). Due to sucking of sap from the leaves, white to yellow spots appear on the surface of the leaves. As the infection progresses, the leaves first appear silver in color and later these leaves fall.  

Control measures

  • For biological treatment, spray Brigade B @ 1 kg + silicomaxx  @ 50 ml per acre, @ 150 to 200 liters of water.

  • For chemical control, take a spray of Oberon (Spiromesifen 22.90% SC) @ 160 ml or Omite (propargite 57% EC) @ 600 ml + silicomaxx @ 50 ml per acre

Identification and control Measures of white fly in chilli crop

02/09/2022Posted on

White fly

 In 15-35 °C temperature, the incidence of this pest is high. The young and adults of this insect suck the sap by sticking to the lower surface of the leaves. They not only damage the crop by sucking the sap, but also release a sticky substance on the plants on which, black mold develops. Plants affected by this appear yellow and oily. In its infestation, the leaves of the plants wither and twist. Which is known as leaf curl disease.

Control measures

  • For biological control, take a spray of Bave-curb @ 500 gm per acre @ 150 -200 liters of water.

  • For chemical control, spray Meothrin @ 136 ml + Silicomaxx @ 50 ml per acre @ 150 -200 liters of water.

Bacterial blight disease and prevention measures in paddy crops

30/08/2022Posted on

Bacterial blight disease:- This disease is caused by a bacterium called Xanthomonas oryzae, in which the leaves start drying from the tip or from the edges. The dried edges are irregular and crooked. Diseased plants become weak, they also have less tillers. And the new leaves of the affected plants are of light brown color. And scorching from the bottom turns yellow or brown and the whole plant dies, if there is more outbreak, it destroys the crop up to 50% or more.

biological management

Apply Combat (Trichoderma viride @ 500 gm) or Monas Curb (Pseudomonas fluorescens 1% WP) @ 500 gm per acre.

Measures for identification and prevention of Fusarium wilt disease in chilli crops

27/08/2022Posted on

Fusarium wilt:

Fusarium wilt is a common disease of the chilli crop. It is a seed and soil borne disease caused by a fungus called Fusarium oxysporum. Affected plants suddenly wither and gradually dry up. Such plants are easily uprooted when pulled by hand. Due to Fusarium wilt, the roots of the diseased plants turn brown and black from inside. When the diseased plants are cut, the tissue appears black. The leaves of the plants wither and fall down. This disease progresses due to excessive moisture and heat in the air and soil and when the right moisture environment is provided by irrigation.

biological management:

Apply Combat (Trichoderma viride @ 500 gm) or Monas Curb (Pseudomonas fluorescens 1% WP) @ 500 gm per acre.

According to TNAU:

Mix @ 2 kg  Combat (Trichoderma Viride) formulation with 50 kg FYM, sprinkle water over it and cover with a thin polythene sheet. After 15 days when the growth of mycelia is visible on the heap, apply the mixture in one acre area.
