Asked about the management of Quick wilt in Pepper.
KCC answer
Apply 100 gram of lime and 250 gram of neem cake / vine / year as premonsoon dose. Apply native isolates of VAM or Trichoderma harzianum or Pseudomonas fluorescens at the time of planting in the nursery and in the main field @ 20 gram/litre of water during the pre-monsoon and post monsoon period in the established plantations to control the disease.
Prophylactic drenching of all the vines to a radius of 50 cm (5-10 litre) and foliar spraying with Copper oxychloride 50 WP (2 gram/litre of water) or Copper hydroxide 50 WP (1.5 gram/litre of water) or 1% Bordeaux mixture immediately after the receipt of south-west monsoon (May-June), just before the onset of north-east monsoon (Aug-Sept) and during October-November if the monsoon is prolonged.
