- Green gram is cultivated on a large scale in many districts of Madhya Pradesh.
- Green gram is included in the major pulses crops and it is a short duration crop with good production.
- Farmers should pay special attention to weeds for about 20 to 30 days after sowing of Green gram.
- Because in the early stages weeds cause heavy damages to the crop.
- Farmers should use Pendimethalin 38.7 CS @ 700 ml/acre in as a pre-emergence herbicide in green gram crop.
Importance of Rhizobium culture in Moong crop
- Rhizobium bacteria is found in the roots of moong plants which causes atmospheric nitrogen fixation and increases crop yield.
- Use of Rhizobium culture produces fast nodules in pulses, which increases 20-30 % yield of Moong, Gram, Pigeonpea and Urad and 50-60% increases soybean yield.
- The use of Rhizobium culture increases about 30-40 kg of nitrogen per hectare in the land.
- Seed treatment in moong is done with 5-10 gram of Rhizobium culture while the Soil treatment is done by mixing 1 kg / acre for pre-sowing with 50 kg FYM.
- The nitrogen deposited by Rhizobium bacteria present in the roots of the pulse crop is used in the next crop, which reduces the need of nitrogen in the next crop.
How to do harvesting and threshing of summer Green Gram
- The moong crop ripens in 65 to 70 days, that is, the crop sown in the months of March-April is ready by May-June.
- Its beans become light brown or black when ripened.
- The mature beans become light brown or black when harvestable.
- The beans of plants ripen unevenly. If all the legumes of the plant are waiting to ripen, the more ripe pods start to crack, so do the chopping of the beans in 2-3 times as soon as they turn green to black. And later cut the crop with plants.
- Harvesting of legumes in premature age deteriorates both the yield and quality of the grains. Sickle Chopped and dried in the field after drying for a day, it is dried.
- After harvesting crop by Sickle drying for one day in the field, and after that drying in the threshing floor. After drying, threshing can be done by beating the sticks or by using a thresher.
- Mix the crop residue in the ground by running a rotavator so that the crop residue works as green manure. With this, about 10 to 12 kg per acre of nitrogen in the soil is supplied for the next crop.
How to increase size of grains along with pod borer control in Green Gram crop
The moong crop may suffer damage due to pod borer (caterpillar), so control it. With this, adopt these measures to increase the size of the grains?
- This pod borer appears green to brown in color, with dark brown stripes on its body.
- The head of the pod borer penetrates into the pod which causes damage by piercing the pod.
- Spraying of Chlorantraniliprole 18.5 SC 60 ml / acre in 200 liters of water for pod borer control. Or
- For this caterpillar prevention, spray Emamectin benzoate 5% SG @ 100 gm + Beauveria bassiana @ 250 gm / acre is mixed with 200 liters of water.
- To increase the size of grains, use 1 kg of Sulfur of Potash-0: 0: 50 fertilizer mixed with this spray.
Control of Yellow Vein Mosaic disease in Mung bean Crop
- This is a virus-borne disease in which the leaves become yellow and turn.
- In this disease veins of the leaves start appearing yellow.
- This disease is spread by the sucking insect whitefly.
- To control spray Diafenthiuron 50% WP 200 gm or Pyriproxyfen 10% + Bifenthrin 10% EC 200 ml or Acetamiprid 20% SP 100 gm in 200 liters of water per acre.
How to protect moong and urad crops from Bacterial Blight?
- Brown, dry and raised spots on the surface of the leaves are the symptoms of this disease.
- These spots are found in red color on the lower surface of the leaves.
- When the outbreak of the disease increases, the spots get mixed together and the leaves turn yellow, so there is a premature loss.
- To control this, spray streptomycin sulfate IP 90% + tetracycline hydrochloride 10% w/w @ 20 gm per acre or kasugamycin 3% SL @ 300 ml per acre in 200 liters of water. Or
- Spraying of Kasugamycin 5% + Copper Oxychloride 45% WP @ 250 gm / acre in 200 liters of water.
