International Conference on Reimagining Rainfed Agro-ecosystems: Challenges &<br />

Opportunities during 22-24, December 2022 at ICAR-CRIDA, Hyderabad<br />

Conclusion<br />

The present investigation highlighted the potentialities <strong>of</strong> talc-based formulations <strong>of</strong> Bacillus<br />

subtilis obtained from Department <strong>of</strong> Plant Pathology, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University,<br />

Coimbatore-641003, Tamil Nadu, India in managing disease <strong>of</strong> maize. Seed treatment and soil<br />

application <strong>of</strong> Bacillus subtilis reduced disease incidence under in vivo conditions with high<br />

yield and the same isolate may be recommended for ec<strong>of</strong>riendly management <strong>of</strong> maize Post<br />

Sorghum, which is locally known as jowar, it is generally grown in both kharif and rabi<br />

seasons. The major states contributing to national sorghum acreage, during rabi season, are<br />

Karnataka and Maharashtra. The productivity <strong>of</strong> sorghum in Karnataka recorded 1194 kg ha -1<br />

with area <strong>of</strong> 8.2 lakh hectares contributing to 9.8 lakh tons to India’s total sorghum production.<br />

Drought can reduce crop productivity which leading to lower income for farmers. Yield<br />

reduction can vary between 34 and 68 % depending on the developmental timing <strong>of</strong> the drought<br />

stress. The rabi sorghum is generally cultivated under stored and receding soil moisture with<br />
