- Farmers are advised to collect the harvested soybean crop and store in safe place after proper drying (turning 2-3 times a day) and thereafter threshing.
Cotton
Jassid
- In Cotton crop areas where Jassid crosses ETL, apply Imidachloprid 17.8 SL @ 3 ml/10 litre or Thiamethoxam 25 WG @ 2g/ 10 liters or Acetamiprid 20 SP@ 3g/10 liters of water.
White Fly
- In Cotton crop areas where white fly crosses ETL, apply Imidachloprid 17.8 SL @ 3 ml/10 litre or Thiamethoxam 25 WG @ 2g/ 10 liters or Acetamiprid 20 SP@ 3g/10 liters of water.
Pink Bollworm

Fall Armyworm

- 2. Bacillus thuringiensis variety kurstaki Formulation (Dipel 81@2ml/1 of water or Delfin 5WG@ 2g/1 water).
- 3. Ragged edged holes: once the larva enter 3rd instar, its feeding cause ragged- edged round to oblong holes on larves. Damage at this stage needs application of chemical pesticides. The choices are Emamectin benzoate 5 SG@ 0.4 g/l or Spinosad 45 SC @ 0.3 ml/l or Chlorantraniliprole 18.5.
Urea
- Farmers should be apply nitrogen after harvesting of M.P. chari.
