Methods of controlling soil-borne diseases

Soil-borne diseases



We have fertilized the soil using synthetic fertilizers. So let's use natural fertilizers to improve soil fertility and make the soil golden. Factors such as blight and root rot (chlamydospore, sclerosia) can remain in the soil for many years and cause disease. Epidermal disease, which causes granulomatous disease (glystosis), stays in the diseased fallen leaves and causes re-infection.


Method of production of beneficial microorganisms:


Apply nutritious manure, foliar manure, well-composted chicken manure, compost, earthworm manure to the soil. By summer plowing the germs on the soil surface are inactivated by the sun’s heat.


Mulching


Setting the lid creates an environment conducive to microbes. Erwinia tuber rot is more common in bananas when the soil temperature is high. The number of weeds is reduced by setting the mulch. This controls the presence of pathogens in the weeds during non-crop periods. Applying neem, peanut butter and sorghum powder to the soil can increase the number of microorganisms and control banana blight, peanut root rot, and coconut blight.


Crop rotation



Using crop rotation instead of cultivating the same crop continuously will reduce the incidence of disease. For example, crop rotation can be used to control diseases such as cabbage rot, vine blight, ash blight, root rot, carrot, cauliflower, tomato, lentil, eggplant, corn, and maize root rot.


Water control


Too much water in the soil will increase the incidence of seedling disease in tomatoes, aubergines, chilies, and vines. As well as fungi such as beetle blight, turmeric, ginger, tuber rot blight, phytophthora are found in excess if there is too much water in the soil. Therefore the amount of water flowing should be balanced. Soil temperature rises when watering decreases, causing bacterial disease (e.g.) banana Erwinia tuber rot disease. To control the blight of bananas, the blight germs can be eradicated by watering the field for 6 months or by cultivating paddy after banana. Waterlogging in the field can remove fungi such as blight, Rhizoctonia, and phytophthora that cause root rot and root rot.



soil cover


Covering the ground with polythene sheets can raise the soil temperature from 40 C to 50 C. This pumpkin, watermelon, radish, marigold can greatly reduce the disease. When the ground is covered with green and blue leaves, the pathogens on the top of the cucumber are destroyed. Infection is reduced when the soil is exposed to sunlight with polythene sheets to control the bacterial disease that occurs in tomatoes. Besides, beneficial microorganisms like Pseudomonas and Bacillus are not attacked. So these indirectly create immunity. They create adverse effects on aphids that spread viral diseases due to the formation of reflective covers in the soil. Tomato leaf blight, cucumber blight, and potato blight can be controlled by placing yellow sticky leaves in the field. Toxic diseases can be reduced by placing white polythene covers on tomato, cucumber, watermelon, and chili fields. To control cucumber yellow fever, whiteflies are attracted and destroyed by high heat when paddy straw is used as mulch. Better disease management is achieved by the application of well-composted manure at the rate of 1 kg/acre of beneficial antibiotics such as Trichoderma viride, Pseudomonas fluorescens, or Bacillus


The role of Pseudomonas fluorescens in controlling soil-borne diseases


Pseudomonas fluorescens, a bacterium that controls soil-borne diseases, controls yields and yields. This is what is blocking organic farming and pushing farmers' lives into poverty. According to the Center for Plant Pathology and Crop Protection at the University of Agriculture: Fertile yields prevent plant diseases. In this, soil-borne diseases, which destroy the crop and its germs, continue to live in the soil. Are also capable of attacking new types of crops. Chemical


pesticides pollute the environment and cause harm to other beneficial organisms. Alternatively, Pseudomonas fluorescens, a bacterium, is increasingly being used as an antibiotic. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most important bacteria. Of these, Pseudomonas fluorescens is used as a biocide. It lives in soils that do not cause disease to plants. Harmless to other beneficial organisms. Has the ability to multiply excessively, even in moderate humidity. Particle system Pseudomonas fluorescens recently converted to liquid. Since it can be used for long days, it is easy to use in drip irrigation. Mix 10 ml of liquid Pseudomonas in one liter of water and treat with one kg of seeds for 10 minutes. After removing the seedlings from the farm, soak them for 10 - 20 minutes in water mixed with bacteria. Mix 500 ml of liquid Pseudomonas with 50 kg of compost per hectare. For drip irrigation, 0.5% solution i.e. five ml of liquid Pseudomonas per liter of water should be added through drip irrigation. Controls all plant diseases transmitted through soil and controls soil-borne diseases including root rot, wilt diseases, seedling, seedling diseases, cabbage, cauliflower root swelling, blight disease, banana blight.

Social media gardening myths. . .DEBUNKED!

If your feed is anything like mine, you will receive regular updatesmGardening information every time you look at your phone. Manyn These articles, memes and posts are mostly good or at least harmless. But some ideas that keep popping up are useless or dangerous to you or your plants. Here are some ridiculous social media myths we should all avoid sharing 1. Oil and vinegar kill weeds. Homemade herbicides have been making the rounds on social media since I first got on Facebook 15 years ago. All of the household herbicides you see include vinegar or oils that kill plants more quickly and "naturally" than something like Roundup. The problem is that vinegar and oil kill quickly By burning the tops of a plant, they don't kill the entire plant, so the weeds grow back on the roots. Of course, very small plants can be killed completely, but this is the exception rather than the rule. A final The problem with vinegar and oil is that they are extremely dangerous to a...

Steps to creating a more eco-friendly garden

In this garden, which blends so seamlessly with the surrounding natural landscape, certain plants play an important role in the transition from manicured beds to wild vegetation. The following are mostly native shrubs and perennials that tolerate challenging conditions well. They are equally at home in the garden and on its edges. What is an Eco Garden? Eco-gardening is a collection of environmentally friendly practices for growing plants and maintaining gardens and lawns. The goal is to choose plants that create a harmonious and balanced ecosystem without synthetic chemicals and consider how you use natural resources. Ecological gardening follows natural growing cycles and relies solely on biological processes. When you start sustainable gardening, you learn to respect "nature's ways" that encourage the presence of beneficial insects, protect the ecosystem from invasive species, and reduce water loss. This approach creates a balanced ecosystem where plants t...

They are one of the most difficult perennials to grow

Most difficult perennials to grow 'Some perennials often considered difficult to grow require the right conditions and some patience to fully enjoy their beauty,' 'Some plants I classify as the gold of perennials - they must be successful. Too hot or too cold, too wet or too dry, too much sun or too much shade, and they cannot survive or thrive. 1. Bearded iris Although bearded iris is one of the oldest and most well-known perennials, there are some common problems that can make it challenging to grow. "Root rot is a common problem with bearded iris, caused by planting too deep or where the soil doesn't drain well," says horticulturist Katie Sunderlage. ‘To avoid root rot, it is important to plant the rhizome 1-2 inches below the surface of well-drained soil, adding organic matter if needed. These majestic garden plants are also susceptible to insect and disease problems, particularly leaf spot, iris borer and aphids. Katie continues, 'To prev...
