Control of Red Mites in Brinjal Crop

Red Mites are small insects that live in groups on the lower surface of leaves.
It sucks the sap from the leaves. This leads to a lack of nutrients in the plants.
This causes the leaves to wither and curl downwards, stunting the growth of the plants.
Due to its outbreak, the fruits ripen less or fall unripe. Webs appear in the plants when there is more infection.

Control: To prevent this, adopt crop rotation or uproot and destroy the affected plants. Apart from this, spray Omite (Proparasite 57% EC) @ 400 ml/acre or Oberon (Spiromesifen 22.90% SC) @ 160 ml mixed in 200 litres of water.
