Plant protection
A green coloured semilooper is only the pest in this crop in the early stages of plant growth and the loss due to this pest is below the economic loss. Regarding disease, powdery mildew is the only major diseases in the winter months. To control powdery mildew, rational use of fungicides like sulphur is used (2g/l). Stem blight is also a disease found in Phyllanthus. This can be controlled by the bio control agent Pseudomonas fluorescens. |
