Nutrition management in okra at the time of sowing

16/10/2021 Saturday October 16th, 2021

In okra, nutrition management is very important at the time of sowing.
Nutrition management gives the okra crop a good head start.
Germination percentage can be increased to a great extent.
This results in better vegetative growth and also improves plant health.
It promotes growth in every stage of the plant-like flowering, fruiting, leaf etc. as well as the growth of the white roots.
Use DAP @ 75 kg / acre + MOP @ 30 kg / acre for nutrition management.
As a biological treatment, mix TRICHODERMA VIRIDE @ 500 gram / acre + NPK bacteria @ 100 gram / acre + MYCORRHIZA @ 2 kg / acre mix all together and use as soil treatment at the time of sowing.

Cutworms management in onion

13/10/2021 Wednesday October 13th, 2021

Young larvae are yellowish-grey and later become brown.
On touching this insect, it gets coiled.
These insects cut small onion plants from the base level at night and hide during the day.
Newly developed insects feed on a large number of onion leaves but later separate and enter the soil.
To control this, mix and spread over the soil CARBOFURAN 3 % GR @ 7.5 kg/acre at the time of transplanting.
mix and spread over the soil CARTAP HYDROCHLORIDE 4 G@ 7.5 kg/acre at the time of transplanting.
CHLORPYRIPHOS 20 % EC@ 1 lit/acre for spray.
As a biological controller, use BEAUVERIA BASSIANA @ 500 gram/acre with every spray.

Leaf spot disease management in onion nursery

12/10/2021 Tuesday October 12th, 2021

In this disease, irregular spots on the leaves are formed, these spots are yellow or brown.
This causes the early fall of leaves, due to these spots, a brown layer is formed on the leaves which disrupts the process of food production for the plant.
SprayTHIOPHANATE METHYL 70% W/W @ 300 gram / acre or CARBENDAZIM 12% + MANCOZEB 63% @ 300 gram/ acre or HEXACONAZOLE 5% SC @ 400 ml / acre

Spray TRICHODERMA VIRIDE @ 500 gram / acre or PSEUDOMONAS FLUORESCENS @ 250 gram / acre as a biological treatment.

Damage to soil and crop due to excess moisture after heavy rains

08/10/2021 Friday October 8th, 2021

Water is the source of life, but too much of it kills. During heavy rains and floods, people and surrounding flora and fauna are also affected by it.
If there is no proper drainage in the field, excessive moisture after heavy rain in the soil creates a high possibility of fungal diseases and bacterial diseases in the soil. Along with this, due to excess moisture, the outbreak of insects in the soil is very high.
Soil erodes after excessive rain, due to which there is a lack of nutrients in the soil.
If we talk about the crop, then the yellowing of the crops, the curling of the leaves, the premature wilting of the crop, the fall of the fruits in the immature stage, the irregular shape of the spots on the fruits, is due to excess moisture.
The deficiency of nutrients in the crop greatly affects crop production.

Why single super phosphate a boon for agriculture

07/10/2021 Thursday October 7th, 2021

Single Super Phosphate (SSP) will prove to be a boon for agriculture to get more yield at a lower cost. Farmers can now use SSP instead of DAP fertilizer.
Single Super Phosphate is a phosphorus fertilizer containing 16% phosphorus, 11% sulfur and 21% calcium. The granular SSP also contains zinc and boron as trace elements. Due to the sulfur available in it, this fertilizer is more beneficial for oilseeds and pulses than other fertilizers.
Sulfur is available in SSP which increases the oil content in oilseed crops like mustard crops and protein content in pulse crops like gram, mung, urad etc. Due to this, farmers should use as much as possible Single superphosphate. In Rabi season, by using an SSP in mustard and gram, you can get more yield at less cost.
Why should the farmer buy SSP – SSP fertilizer is cheaper than DAP and is easily available in the market. 23 kg of Phosphorus and 9 kg of Nitrogen is found in DAP per bag. If 3 bags of SSP and 1 bag of urea are used as an alternative to DAP, then more Nitrogen and Phosphorus can be obtained at an even lower cost. Apart from this, the crop also does not have to add sulfur and calcium separately, which reduces the cost of cropping.

What is Jalebi disease in onion and garlic crop

03/10/2021 Sunday October 3rd, 2021

It is a common disease in garlic crops caused by Thrips insect, this disease heavily harms garlic in its major stages.
This insect begins by scratching the garlic leaves with its mouth, and after scratching the delicate part of the leaves, it begins to sucks its cell sap . Thus it damages the plant by scratching and lapping.
Due to which the leaves start curling and gradually the effect of this problem increases more i.e. the leaves start taking the shape of jalebi. In this way the plant starts drying up gradually, hence the problem being known as Jalebi disease.
Use of the following products is necessary for the prevention of this disease.
Profenophos 50% EC @ 500 ml / acre or Acephate 75% SP @ 300 gm/acre or Lambda cyhalothrin 4.9% CS @ 250 ml/acre or Thiamethoxam 12.6% + Lambda cyhalothrin Spraying @ 9.5% ZC @ 80 ml/acre or Fipronil 40% + Imidacloprid 40% WG @ 40 gm/acre or Fipronil 5% SC @ 400 ml/acre or Acephate 50% + Imidacloprid 1.8% SP @ 400 gm/acre.
Use Bavaria Bassiana @ 250 gm/acre as a biological treatment.
