Humid Weather Threatens Wheat: Fungal Disease & Aphid Outbreak Feared

• Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar and Marathwada face cloudy, humid weather, increasing risk of fungal disease and aphid infestation on wheat crops.
• Fungal and aphid diseases lead to lighter grains, reduced yield, and decreased grain quality.
• Blight disease causes yellow and brown spots on leaves, hindering photosynthesis and stunting crop growth.
• Agricultural experts advise immediate spraying of medicines, proper water management, and removal of diseased plant parts.
• Farmers are urged to use balanced fertilizers, recommended pesticide doses, and spray during dry weather to protect wheat crops.
