By treating seeds of chilli, seeds can be easily protected from the insect and fungal diseases.
-
This helps in good growth and development of the roots, the number of white roots increases and the chilli crop gets a good start.
-
The use of organic insecticide by treating seeds is beneficial for the prevention of termites and white grubs etc. in the soil.
-
By treating seeds with fungicides, the germination capacity of the crop increases.

In a nursery, sowing of chilli after soil treatment is very good and free from disease.
-
For soil treatment use 10 kg FYM,1 kg DAP and Maxxroot 100 grams per square meter.
-
To avoid ants and termites, use Carbofuran @ 15gm per bed, and then sow the seeds.
-
After the soil treatment, sow the chilli seeds and irrigate the bed as per requirement after sowing.
-
In the nursery stage of chilli, weeding is needed to prevent weeds.

- It is very important to do seed treatment before sowing of chilli, so sowing of the chilies should be done if possible by seed treatment.
- In chilli, seed treatment is done by both chemical and biological methods.
- Chemical treatment: – Carbendazim 12% + Mancozeb 63% @ 2.5gram/kg seed, or Thiamethoxam 30% FS @ 6-8ml/kg seed, used for seed treatment.
- Biological treatment: – Seed treatment at the rate of Trichoderma viride @ 5-10gram/kg seed or Pseudomonas fluorescens @ 5-10gram/kg seed.

Chillies are normally prepared in the nursery, because better results are obtained by preparing seedlings in the nursery.
-
Prior to plowing, clean the selected area for nursery first.
-
The selected area should be well drained, and free from water logging
-
There should be proper sunlight.
-
Nursery should have proper arrangement of water and irrigation so that irrigation can be done on time.
-
This area should be well protected from pets and wild animals.
-
Sandy loam and loam soil rich in organic matter are suitable.
-
For healthy transplanting, the soil should be free from pathogens.
-
After this, before preparation of the beds, cultivate the land twice with the plow, for seeds sowing make the raised beds (like 33 ft × 3 ft × 0.3 ft) as per the requirement.

Different types of fertilizers are used continuously throughout the year in poly houses / greenhouses.
-
For this reason, the health of the polyhouse soil starts to deteriorate within 3-4 years. Despite good seeds, proper nutrients and all precautions, there can be a huge decrease in the yield and quality of the crop.
-
Therefore, it is necessary that in order to do scientific farming, farmers should constantly examine the health of the soil and maintain complete information about it.
-
Correct sampling is very important for soil testing.
-
The sample is taken from different locations inside the polyhouse/greenhouse. Then it is mixed well and divided into four parts.
-
Repeat this process until the remaining sample weighs half a kilogram.
-
The samples obtained in this way are sent to the testing center. And according to the report farm fertilizer is used.

If the soil pH is below 6.5, then this type of soil is called acidic soil.
-
In highly acidic soil, only acid-resistant crops can be planted
-
In the case of more acidic soil, it is necessary to adopt the method of liming.
-
Liming increases base saturation and availability of calcium and magnesium.
-
The stabilization of phosphorus (P) and molybdenum (Mo) can inactivate reactive components.
-
Liming induces the action of micro-organisms and increases nitrogen fixation and nitrogen mineralization. In this way, leguminous crops benefit greatly from liming.

The female fly lays eggs in soft fruits
-
The maggot comes out of these eggs and makes a tunnel in the fruit and eats the fruit’s pulp, which causes the fruit to rot.
-
The fruits become curved and become weak and separate from the vine.
-
On the damaged fruit, the egg keeps the fluid coming out from the given place, which later becomes a khurnt.
-
For the control of this pest, use Fenpropathrin 10% EC @ 400 ml/acre or Profenofos 40% + cypermethrin 4% EC @ 400 ml/acre or Spinosid 45% SC @ 60 ml /acre.
-
UseBeauveria Bassiana @ 250gram/acre as a biological treatment.

Mites are small and red-colored insects that are found in large quantities on soft parts of bitter gourd crops such as leaves, flower buds, and twigs.
-
Webs can be seen on bitter gourds infested with mites.
-
This insect sucks the tender parts of the plant, weakens them and in the end the plant dies.
-
Chemical management:- Propargite 57% Ec@ 400 ml/acre or Spiromesifen 22.9% SC @ 200 ml/acre or Abamectin 1.9 % EC@ 150 ml/acre
-
Biological treatment :- use Metarhizium Anisopliae @ 1 kg/acre

If you are a farmer and you or any member of your household uses a smartphone then you can bring many revolutionary changes in your agriculture. Pritesh Goyal, a resident of Dewas district has also brought some similar changes in his farming.
Pritesh is a young farmer and understands the importance of technology in agriculture, so when he came to know about the gramophone app, he immediately installed it on his smart phone and soon started getting the benefits of it.
When Pritesh was sowing his moong crop, he connected his field with the ‘My Farm’ option of the Gramophone app. Pritesh got the result of a 60% increase in profits by connecting the farm to the app. With the help of the app, their agricultural cost also decreased than before and there was a significant increase in yield as well. Pritesh cultivated moong in his 7-acre field and achieved a production of 38.5 quintals. This production was 10% higher than before.
However, if you do not have a smartphone, you can still connect to Gramophone. For this, you have to make a missed call on our toll-free number 18003157566 and then our agricultural experts will call you and solve your problems.

The bitter gourd crop is a very important crop among the vegetable crops.
-
Bitter gourd crops are planted throughout the year.
-
Use urea @ 40 kg/acre + SSP @ 100 kg/acre + MOP @ 35 kg/acre at the time of sowing of bitter gourd.
-
If the bitter gourd crop is planted in drip, then urea @ 1 kg/acre + 12:61:00 @ 1 kg/acre is given in drip daily.
