Agronomy

Flexible Agronomy	Plant Population 12000 to 14000 per acre Seed Rate 200 to 250 grams Per Acre Suitability of the variety for the Area Agro Climatic Zone All India Selection of the field/land preparation practices Field should be well prepared free from weeds and well drainage facility. 1-2 deep ploughing, Soil should be exposed to sunlight, 3 to 4 rounds of harrows to reach fine tilt. Before final harrow, apply 8 to 10 MT well decomposed FYM/acre along with 250 gm Trichoderma for controlling soil born fungus Seed Treatment-rate of timing/ chemical Seeds are treated with Carbendazim 2g + Thiram 2 g per Kg of seeds. Sowing Time Summer, Rabi, Kharif Seed Rate/ Sowing method- line sowing with row to row and plant to plant distance/ direct sowing Seed Rate: 250 - 300 g per acre. Sowing: Direct in main field Spacing: Row to Row and Plant to Plant - 150 x 45 cm Fertilizer dose with timing Total N:P:K requirement @ 80:100:120 kg per acre. Dose & Timing: Basal Dose: Apply 50% N and 100% P, K as basal dose during final land preparation. Top Dressing: 25% N at 30 days after sowing and 25% N at 50 days after sowing Weed Control- Chemicals with doses and timing Timely weed removal is very important, need based hand weeding can be done to ensure healthy crop. Diseases & Pest control- Chemicals with doses and timing Far effective crop control use the following Insect and disease solution: Powdery Mildew and Anthracnose - Apply Amistar (200ml/acre), Fruit rot - Apply Kavach @ 400g/acre and for any other diseases apply fungicide as per recommendation from the Department of Agriculture (plant protection) White Fly + Mites - Apply Pegasus @ 250g/acre Spodetara+ Fruit Borer -Apply Cigna @ 250 ml/acre Fruit Borer - Apply Proclaim @ 80g/acre and for any other Insects apply recommended Insecticides Irrigation Schedule Irrigation Frequency Depends upon - A. Soil type: Light soils need more frequency. Heavy soil needs less frequency. B. Crop Stage: Vegetative stage: maintain adequate moisture for the development of roots. Flowering & fruiting - frequent and shallow irrigation. Harvesting - gradually reduce irrigation during harvesting C. Growing Season: Summer - requires frequent irrigation. Winter- As against the summer season, in winter the irrigation frequency is longer. Rainy - very less frequency depending upon soil moisture Harvesting Full mature firm green fruits starts harvesting at 60-70 days, later at 5 to 7 days intervals. Timely picking stimulates plant to produce more flowers Expected Yield of the variety Average yield: 12 MT/acre (depending on season and cultural practice)
