Foliar spray of 0.2% Copper oxychloride (Blitox)<br />

effectively controls the disease. Reduces 80% leaf<br />

rust disease severity<br />

Disseminated to the field.<br />

It is being widely used by the farmers in Eastern &<br />

North-Eastern India, besides, during last year the<br />

technology was percolated to 521 farmers in<br />

Malda, Murshidabad & Birbhum districts<br />

Foliar spray of 0.1% Carbandazim effectively<br />

controls the disease. Reduces 70 – 80% leaf spot<br />

disease severity. Disseminated to the field. It is<br />

being widely used by the farmers in Eastern &<br />

North-Eastern India. During the last year this<br />

technology was percolated to 521 farmers in<br />

Malda, Murshidabad & Birbhum<br />

Foliar spray of 0.1% Plantomycin effectively<br />

controls the disease. Reduces 60-70% leaf spot<br />

disease severity.<br />

Disseminated to the field.<br />

It is being widely used by the farmers in Eastern &<br />

North-Eastern India.<br />

Forecasting model for Bacterial leaf spot has been<br />

developed.<br />

This is being advocated to the farmers, during the<br />

crop periods.<br />

During the last year this technology was percolated<br />

to 521 farmers in Malda, Murshidabad & Birbhum<br />

The sulphur application package developed as a<br />

balanced use of fertilizer based on nutrient removal<br />

pattern to optimize the quality mulberry leaf<br />

production per unit area and to maintain the soil<br />

fertility as well.<br />

Extent of coverage: 4.5 acres covered under<br />

validation of the technology<br />

For increasing mulberry leaf yield under rainfed<br />

condition. The echnology has been validated in DoT<br />

(Seri.), West Bengal farms (2 Nos.) farmers’ field (21<br />

Nos.) and RSRS farms (2 Nos.) and REC farms (2<br />

Nos.) in 8 locations under 3 states (West Bengal,<br />

Odisha and Jharkhand). Extent of coverage: 20<br />

farmers’ field; 0.4 acres covered<br />

Use of Napier grass mulch has been recommended<br />

for conservation of soil moisture there by increase<br />

in leaf and cocoon production.<br />

Mulberry nursery raising technology has been<br />

developed for temperate and sub-tropical<br />

conditions of North India.<br />
