General Advisory

  • Farmers are advised to monitor standing crops closely for fungal and bacterial diseases, as rainfall, cloudy conditions and evening fog may increase leaf wetness and humidity.
  • Maintain proper drainage in low-lying fields and avoid unnecessary irrigation, particularly in vegetables, rice, soybean and pulses.
  • Avoid spraying pesticides, fungicides and foliar fertilizers during rainfall, foggy conditions or when rainfall is expected soon after application. Spray during a dry period with sufficient time for the chemical to dry.
  • Harvest mature vegetables, maize, cowpea and other harvest-ready crops during dry weather/clear hours and avoid harvesting when crop surfaces are wet.
  • Farmers should monitor crops for leaf spots, blight, rotting and other moisture-related diseases, particularly after consecutive cloudy or rainy periods.
  • Protect temperature-sensitive crops, nursery plants and protected-cultivation crops from cooler night temperatures and excess moisture by maintaining adequate ventilation and using suitable temporary protection where required.
