Management of Mosaic Virus Disease in Sponge Gourd

24/05/2018Posted on

Management of Mosaic Virus Disease in Sponge Gourd:-

Symptoms:-

  • This viral disease is transmitted through sap and vector aphids, white fly and red pumpkin beetle.
  • In infected plants, the younger leaves unfold very late show complete chlorosis following by green vein banding.
  • The older leaves exhibit prominent dark green raised blisters. the malformed leaves assume a filiform shape.
  • Vegetable growth, flowering and productivity are also adversely affected. severely affected vines do not set fruit.

Management:-

  • Adopt clean cultivation and remove alternate host particularly weeds.
  • Avoid relay cropping of susceptible crops.
  • Avoid cropping mosaic prone season and areas.
  • Spray Dimethoate 30% EC @ 30 Ml./pump at 10-15 days intervals. and add antibiotic chemical like streptomycin 2 gm/pump for better control.

Management of Leaf reddening in Cotton

23/05/2018Posted on

Management of Leaf Reddening in Cotton:-  

  • Adjustment of sowing time for enabling the crop to skip over the adverse environmental condition during boll development stage.
  • One or two sprays of urea (1 %) at appropriate times.  
  • Application of magnesium sulphate (0.5%).  
  • Adequate drainage to avoid waterlogging of the fields.
  • Leaf reddening incidence due to sucking pests may be overcome by spraying recommended insecticides.
  • Boll load management.
  • Supply of adequate nutrients during flowering and boll development particularly in hybrids.
  • Timely inter-culture and weeding operations and other agronomic practices.
  • Avoidance of susceptible cultivars.
  • Adequate irrigation if available.
  • Adoption of crop rotation and growing of intercrop to maintain the soil health and nutritional status.

Bio-fungicide:- Trichoderma; Application and Benefits

21/05/2018Posted on

Trichoderma is a very effective biological mean for plant disease management especially the soil born. It is a free-living fungus which is common in soil and root ecosystems.

Benefits of Trichoderma

Disease Control, Plant Growth Promoter, Biochemical Elicitors of Disease, Transgenic Plants and Bioremediation.

Method of application:

  1. Seed treatment: Mix 6 – 10 g of Trichoderma powder per Kg of seed before sowing.
  2. Nursery treatment: Apply 10 – 25 g of Trichoderma powder per 100 Sq.m. of nursery bed. Application of neem cake and FYM before treatment increases the efficacy.
  3. Cutting and seedling root dip: Mix 10g of Trichoderma powder per liter of water and dip the cuttings and seedlings for 10 minutes before planting.
  4. Soil treatment: Mix 1kg of Trichoderma formulation in 100 kg of farmyard manure and cover it for 7 days with polythene. Sprinkle the heap with water intermittently. Turn the mixture in every 3-4 days interval and then broadcast in the field.
  5. Plant Treatment: Drench the soil near stem region with 10 g Trichoderma powder mixed in a liter of water.

Weed Management Of Maize

04/05/2018Posted on

Weed Management Of Maize:-

  • Apply Atrazine @ 0.25 kg/ha as pre-emergence on 3-5 DAS using Backpack/ Knapsack/ Rocker sprayer fitted with a flat fan nozzle using 500 litres of water/ha followed by one hand weeding on 30-35 DAS. (or)
  • Apply Atrazine @ 0.25 kg/ha as pre-emergence on 3-5 DAS followed by 2,4-D @ 1 kg/ha on 20-25 DAS, using Backpack/Knapsack/Rocker sprayer fitted with a flat fan nozzle using 500 litres of water/ha.
  • Apply herbicide when there is sufficient moisture in the soil.
  • Do not disturb the soil after herbicide application.
  • If pulse crop is to be raised as intercrop, do not use Atrazine. Spray Pendimethalin @0.75 kg/ha as pre emergence on 3-5 DAS.

Disease Free Nursery Raising For Marigold

03/05/2018Posted on

Disease Free Nursery Raising For Marigold:-

  • Healthy seed should be selected for sowing.
  • The seed should be treated with recommended fungicide before sowing.
  • Continuous raising of nursery in the same plot should be avoided.
  • The top soil of nursery should be treated with carbendazim @ 5 gm/square m. are of the soil  and nursery should be drenched with carbendazim @ 2gm/litre of water at fortnightly interval.
  • Application of bio-control agent trichoderma viride in soil @ 1.2 kg/ha is also found effective to control damping-off to considerable extent.

Criteria of Selection of Cotton Variety

30/04/2018Posted on

Criteria of Selection of Cotton Variety:-

  • Resistance:- Most Cotton produced in India has been genetically engineered to have an insect control package.
  • Yield Stability:- Yield stability is the ability of a variety to perform well across various environments.
  • Maturity:- Maturity is an indication of how long it will take from planting until harvest for a variety. cotton variety maturity is often classified as early, medium, late or full season.
  • Fiber Quality:-The price a grower receives can be positively or negatively affected by fiber quality. fiber quality is fiber length, strength and uniformity are heavily influenced by genetics and to a much lesser extent by environment.
  • Available Water:- When selecting a variety, it should be kept in mind that we have the water system and how we should like the kind of irrigated, semi-cultured and rain-based Variety.

Nursery Bed Preparation of Cabbage

30/04/2018Posted on

Nursery Bed Preparation of Cabbage:-

  • The cabbage seeds are sown in a seed bed and 4-6 week old seedlings are transplanting to the field.
  • Raised beds of size 3*0.6 m and 10-15 cm in height are prepared.
  • About 70 cm distances is kept between two beds to carry out intercultural operations such as watering, weeding, etc.
  • The surface of beds should be smooth and well leveled.
  • Well-decomposed FYM @2-3 kg/m is added at the time of bed preparation.
  • Raised beds are necessary to avoid problem of water logging in heavy soils.
  • To avoid mortality of seedlings due to damping off, drenching of the beds with Carbendazim 50% WP (15-20g/10 liters of water ) is effective.

डीएपी के दाम कम होने की संभावना:-

पिछले दिनों में डीएपी उर्वरक के दाम उछाल सब्सिडी नीति न्यूट्रीएंट बेस्ड योजना में फास्फेट पर अनुदान में लगभग 27% की वृद्धि करना पड़ी थी | हालांकि केंद्र ने पोटाश पर अनुदान में लगभग 10% की कमी कर दी | केंद्र शासन के उर्वरक विभाग नई उर्वरक अनुदान नीति के क्रियान्वयन के लिए गाईड लाईन्स जारी करते हुए यह भी स्पष्ट किया है कि बोरोन तथा जिंक कोटेड फास्फोटिक अथवा पोटेशिक उर्वरकों पर क्रमशः 300 रु. व 500 रु. प्रति टन की दर से अतिरिक्त सब्सिडी दी जाएगी| जिससे किसानों में इन सूक्ष्म तत्वों के उपयोग को भी बढ़ावा मिले| उर्वरक विभाग ने यह भी निर्देश दिए है कि इन उर्वरकों के निर्माता उर्वरक के बैग पर अनुदान राशि दर्शाते हुए एम आर पी आवश्यक रूप से प्रिंट करें| प्रिंटेड एम आर पी से अधिक दर पर उर्वरक बेचना दंडनीय अपराध होगा|

Field preparation for Soybean:-

  • The field is ploughed to fine tilth by giving 3-4 ploughing with a sufficient interval between two ploughing.
  • Well decomposed FYM (15-20 tonnes/ha.) is thoroughly incorporated at the time of land preparation.
  • Application of organic Manure like neem cake and pouling manures improves the plant growth, quality and yield in Soybean and reduces requirement of fertilizer.
