If there is moisture in the field, do this work immediately, the risk of insect and fungus may increase, know the advice of agricultural expert of Saharsa

Mohd Sarfaraz Alam/Saharsa: If there is still moisture in your field, then be careful because due to excess moisture in the field, the infestation of many types of insects and fungi starts increasing rapidly in the crop. It is very important to treat it in time, otherwise your crop may suffer huge losses. Dr. Nadeem Akhtar, scientist at the Agricultural Research Center of Saharsa, says that as soon as the moisture in the fields increases, the attack of fungus, bacteria and other insects starts. This problem starts appearing in Rabi crops from the initial stage, hence experts always advise that Rabi crops should never be sown without seed treatment. Next we are going to give you other important information including seed treatment.

The first medicine for seed treatment is Bavistin. It is a well-known fungicide used in seed treatment. Farmers can use this medicine at the rate of 2 grams per kg seed. This eliminates the problem of fungus and rotting present in the seeds to a great extent. The second important medicine is Trichoderma, which is a biological fungicide. It is also safe for the environment and is very effective in protecting the crop from early diseases.

Be sure to use Trichoderma at the rate of 5 grams per kg seed. This medicine also promotes beneficial bacteria in the soil, which makes the plants more healthy. If you are cultivating maize, then using Gaucho medicine in seed treatment is very beneficial. Using Gaucho protects maize from early pests, which makes the plant stronger and increases production.

The expert further said that seed treatment is a small task but its impact is huge. It protects your crop from diseases and pests and increases production. This also reduces the cost of farming.
