Gummy stem blight symptoms and control in watermelon crop Symptoms

Gummy stem blight symptoms and control in watermelon crop Symptoms

During the cultivation of watermelon, the outbreak of many types of diseases is seen in its entire crop cycle. By preventing these diseases, a good yield of watermelons can be obtained. Gummy stem blight is one of the major diseases of the watermelon crop and in this article, we will know the information and prevention measures related to this disease.

Gummy stem blight is one of the serious foliar diseases in watermelon crops. In this disease, brown spots appear on the stems and leaves and these spots are surrounded by yellow tissues. After that, this lesion on the stem enlarges and forms a rotting which secretes a sticky, brown liquid. Fruit is rarely affected by this disease, but the loss of foliage can also affect yield and fruit quality.

Control: To avoid gummy stem blight, use disease-free seeds, as well as crop rotation of 2 years in all cucurbits crops. Also, on the appearance of disease symptoms, for chemical control, spray fungicide like Jatayu (Chlorothalonil 75% WP) @ 400 gm/acre or M45 (Mancozeb 75% WP) @ 600-800 gm/acre @ 150 to 200 litres of water.

Know the benefits of growing summer moong

After the rabi crops are harvested, the field remains fallow till the Kharif season. But if the farmer brothers want, they can get good benefits by making proper use of the time between Rabi and Kharif, which is called Zayed. If there can be any best choice for farming in the Zayed season then it is the moong crop which is a short-duration crop and can give good profit. The following are the main reasons why its cultivation is beneficial.

  • It controls weeds and prevents wind erosion in summer.

  • The attack of pests and diseases on the crop is very less.

  • Crop/varieties take less time to mature (60-65 days)

  • In turn, this adds at least 30-50 kg of available nitrogen/ha through rhizobium fixation which can be adjusted while applying fertilizers in the next Kharif season crop.

  • Cropping intensity increases.

  • The area and production under pulses can be increased without giving up the cereal crop grown during the Kharif season.

  • It makes use of residual soil fertility when grown after crops with heavy fertilizer demands such as potatoes, wheat and winter maize.

Coriander cultivation will give tremendous yield in less time and earn a lot

  • Climate: Dry and cool weather is favorable for getting good production. 25 to 26 *Centigrade temperature is good for seed germination.

  • Soil: Well drained loamy soil is good for irrigated coriander crop and black heavy soil is good for non-irrigated crop. Coriander does not tolerate alkaline and saline soils. Well drained and fertile loam or clay loam soil is suitable. The pH of the soil should be 6.5 to 7.5. In irrigated areas. In the irrigated area, if there is not enough moisture in the land at the time of plowing, then the land should be prepared after irrigation. Due to which lumps will not be formed in the soil at the time of plowing and the weed seeds will be destroyed after germination at the time of plowing. For rainfed crop, after harvesting of kharif crop, plowing should be done immediately by doing two horizontal ploughings.

  • Improved varieties of coriander: Fauja, Surabhi, Raunak-31, 

  • Time of sowing: For green leaves, it can be sown in the month of April-May.

  • Seed rate: 15-20 kg/ha of seed is required in irrigated crops and 25-30 kg/ha in non-irrigated crops.

  • Seed treatment & fertilizers: For protection from soil and seed-borne diseases, seed should be treated with Carmanova (Carbendazim+Mancozeb) 2.5 g./kg. To get a good yield of coriander, apply farm yard manure 20 tons/ha. For irrigated crops, use fertilizers at the rate of 60 kg nitrogen, 40 kg phosphorus, 20 kg potash and 20 kg sulfur per hectare.

To protect crops from stray animals and wild creatures like nilgai and wild boars, the Rajasthan government has launched the ‘Tarbandi Yojana’ (Fencing Scheme). Under this scheme, farmers receive a subsidy of 50–70% to install fencing around their farmland. Earlier, the scheme was only available to farmers owning at least 1.5 hectares of land, but with the updated guidelines, even farmers with just 2 bigha (0.5 hectares) of land are now eligible. This move aims to help small farmers secure their crops and improve overall agricultural productivity.

How to Apply and Who is Eligible?
Farmers can apply for the Tarbandi Yojana online through the ‘Raj Kisan Sathi’ portal. Required documents include Aadhaar card, Jan Aadhaar card, proof of land ownership, and bank account details. Small and marginal farmers can get up to 60% subsidy (maximum ₹48,000), while general category farmers can receive 50% (maximum ₹40,000). Groups of 10 or more farmers applying together can get up to 70% subsidy. This scheme is a major step towards securing farmers’ hard work, increasing their income, and making agriculture more sustainable in rural Rajasthan.

Major pests and control measures of cucurbitaceous crops

05/04/2025Posted on
Major pests and control measures of cucurbitaceous crops

Red pumpkin beetle: This bright red-coloured insect makes a sieve-like appearance by feeding on the leaves of the plant, especially in the early stages. Affected leaves split and plant growth is stunted.

Control: To avoid the damage caused by this pest, sow the crop till the month of December. Keep the field clean by destroying the weeds. For chemical control, spray Marquit (Bifenthrin 10 % EC) @ 2 ml + SilicoMaxx Gold @ 0.5 ml per liter of water. For biological control, take spray of Beauveria bassiana mixed in 2 g/Lit of water.

Leaf miner: The caterpillar of the insect damages the leaves by making tunnels inside the leaves and eats the chlorophyll, due to which white stripes are formed on the leaves. It mainly damages tomato, sponge gourd, cucumber and cucurbitaceous crops.

Control: For, Spray Neemgold (Azadirachtin 0.3%) 3000 ppm, @ 150 ml, or Benevia (Cytraniliprole 10.26% OD) @ 20 – 25 ml +  SilicoMaxx @ 5 ml per 15 liters of water.

Fruit fly: It is a fruit-attacking pest in cucurbit crops. Its maggots cause more damage to small fruits. The caterpillar of fruit fly damages the fruit from inside. Due to this the fruits fall before ripening. Due to the attack of caterpillars of fruit fly, sticky liquid of brown color flows from the fruits and the shape of the fruit deteriorates. Fruit flies bore holes in fruits to lay eggs. Due to this holes start appearing in the fruits. Affected fruits become oblong. When the pest attack increases, the fruits start rotting.

Control: Direct control of its maggots is not possible but by controlling the number of adult male flies their outbreak can be reduced. Before transplanting the plants in the field, do deep plowing of the field. This will destroy the pupae already present in the soil. To attract the pest, set 10 to 12 pheromone traps per acre of field and change the lure at an interval of 15 -20 days. Male insects are attracted by the lure and get trapped. This can control the growth of fruit flies. Pluck and destroy the affected fruits. Also for chemical control spray Decis (Deltamethrin 100 EC) @ 1 ml per liter of water. Or spray Celquin (Quinalphos 25% EC) @ 2 ml per liter of water.
