Selection of the field/land preparation
practices |
Field
should be well prepared free from weeds and well drainage facility. 1-2 deep
ploughing, apply
8 to 10 MT well decomposed FYM/acre along with 250 gm Trichoderma for
controlling soil born fungus. |
Seed Treatment-rate of timing/ chemical |
Seeds are treated with
Carbendazim 2g + Thiram 2 g per Kg of seeds. |
Sowing Time |
Kharif |
Seed Rate/
Sowing method- line sowing with row to row and plant to plant distance/
direct sowing
|
Seed Rate: 80g
- 100g per acre. Prepare the raised bed of
180x90x15cm, for 1acre 10 to 12 beds are required.
The nursery should be free
from weeds and debris. Line sowing is recommended.
Distance between two rows:
8-10 cm (4 fingers) apart,
Distance between seed to
seeds: 3-4 cm ( 2 fingers), Seeds are sown in line at
0.5-1.0 cm deep
Transplanting: Transplanting
should be done 25-30 days after sowing. Spacing: Row to Row and Plant to
Plant - 75 x 45 cm or 90 x 45 cm |
Fertilizer dose with timing |
Total N:P: K requirement @
120:60:80 kg per acre.
Basal Dose: Apply 50% N
and 100% P, K as basal dose during final land preparation.
Top Dressing: 25% N at 30
days after sowing and 25% N at 50 days after sowing. |
Weed Control- Chemicals with doses and
timing |
Timely weed removal is
very important, need-based hand weeding can be done to ensure a healthy crop. |
Diseases & Pest control- Chemicals with
doses and timing |
For effective
crop control use the following Insect and disease solutions: Powdery Mildew and
Anthracnose - Apply Amistar (200ml/acre),
Fruit rot - Apply Kavach @
400g/acre and for any other diseases apply fungicide as per recommendation
from the Department of Agriculture (plant protection)
White Fly+Mites - Apply
Pegasus @ 250g/acre Spodetara+ Fruit Borer -
Apply Cigna @ 250 ml/acre Fruit Borer - Apply
Proclaim @ 80g/acre |
