Rabi Crop Care: Protect Wheat, Gram, Mustard from Diseases, Don't Delay Irrigation

• Rabi crops (mustard, wheat, gram, barley) in Alwar, Rajasthan, are at a crucial stage amidst fluctuating weather.
• Timely irrigation is vital for wheat: fourth irrigation for early-sown wheat during ear emergence, third for late-sown during tillering/node formation.
• Combat termites in gram and wheat by weeding, hoeing, and applying Chlorpyrifos or Imidacloprid with irrigation.
• Address Yellow Rust in wheat with Propiconazole or Tebuconazole spray if yellow streaks appear on leaves.
• Harvest mustard promptly when leaves shed and pods yellow to prevent shattering and grain loss; dry and thresh quickly.
