To control infestation, spray Emamectin Benzoate 5% SG @ 100 gm/acre of Novaluron 5.25% + Emamectin Benzoate 0.9% SC @ 600 ml/acre or Profenophos 40% + Cypermethrin 4% EC @ 400 ml/acre.
Spray Beauveria Bassiana @ 500gram/acre as a biological treatment
Remove the affected plants from the field and after spraying insecticide spray Vigormax gel @ 400 gm/acre for good growth of the crop.

Indian farmers work hard in the fields, but most of the farmers are not able to get good results of their hard work because they insist on traditional agriculture according to their knowledge. Whereas in today’s era, many major research has been done in the field of agriculture, as a result, with the help of many new agricultural products, agriculture has become modern as well as beneficial. Farmer Kailash Mukati JI, the resident of Hathola village of Barwani district of Madhya Pradesh, modernized his traditional agriculture with the help of Gramophone, now he is getting the benefit of it.
Recently, Gramophone’s agricultural experts had visited Kailash ji’s chili field, which he has cultivated completely on the advice of Gramophone. During this time Kailash ji told that he is completely satisfied after seeing the growth of the crop. He used a Gramophone Chilli Drip Kit in his crop which resulted in better growth of his plants than plants of other nearby farmers.
The farmer compared the plant developed using the drip kit and the plant developed without the use of drip kit. The root, stem, leaves, everything is getting better growth due to the drip kit and fruits are also coming up.
It is worth noting that Gramophone has made Samriddhi kit and drip kit not only for chilli but also for other crops like maize, cotton, soybean, moong, etc which has seen very good results. Many other farmers along with Kailash Mukati have achieved better results with its use. If you also want to use any of these kits Please Visit Gramophone’s Market Section.
Before sowing soybean, select the field, as well as ensure that there is adequate drainage system from that field in case of excessive rainfall.
Soybean can be sown everywhere except rocky land. Sowing by leveling the field will improve the drainage of water and yield is also good. Medium loam soil is suitable for sowing soybean.
Deep plowing of vacant land should be done 10 to 12 inches deep with soil turning plow. Prepare the field well by ploughing once.
After this, to control soil insects present in the soil, do soil treatment with Metarhizium culture. By this treatment, pests like white grubs can be controlled very well, along with decomposing culture to decomposed old crops residues. Because of this, the residues of the old crop are very easily converted into useful manure, its benefit is also available in keeping the crop disease free.
Select such a variety for sowing which is disease and pest resistant. After selecting the seeds, do a germination test of the seeds before sowing, so that whether the soybean seed is healthy or not, it is also known. Also it helps in calculating the quantity of seed for sowing.
Soil treatment and seed treatment must be done before sowing. By doing this, soil and seed borne diseases can be controlled.

Maize is the main crop of the Kharif season and, during the Kharif season, there is a lot of moisture in the soil, due to which the attack of fall armyworm is very high in Maize.
For the control of fall armyworm, it is very important to take measures at the time of sowing of maize so that there is no damage to the maize crop.
By plowing the field before sowing maize, the pupae of insects are eaten by birds. To prevent fall armyworm, sow the seeds only after treating them with insecticide.
Fall armyworm destroys the maize crop by eating its roots and leaves, due to which the maize crop is completely destroyed.
For its control, do seed treatment of maize or use treated seeds only. For this use recommended insecticides like Imidacloprid 48% FS @ 5 ml/kg seed or treat with Chlorantraniliprole 19.8 + Thiamethoxam 19.8 FS @ 6 ml/kg seed.
Treat with Beauveria bassiana @ 5 gram/kg seed as an biological seed treatment
Along with this, some more precautions must be taken like sowing maize in the whole field together, don’t do it separately.
To reduce the incidence of fall army worm, sow varieties like hybrid maize as its seed coat is hard. Intercrops can also be sown with maize.

In Kharif, mainly cotton, chilli, soybean, tomato, etc. crops are sown.
For good production in these crops, it is very beneficial to do seed treatment before sowing, but it is very important to be careful while doing seed treatment.
Seed treatment should be done in the order of FIR, i.e. first using fungicide followed by insecticide and lastly any organic product (PSB/Rhizobium).
Spread the seeds on an earthen pot or polythene sheet and mix the dry or liquid form of fungicide and insecticide by spreading it well on the seeds. One thing should be kept in mind in this type of treatment that the chemical should stick well on the seeds.
The second method of seed treatment involves treating the seeds by mixing chemicals with seed sticking agents.
Use as much water as needed to coat the seed or chemical
Use only recommended doses of fungicide and insecticide
Seeds can be treated before sowing time.
