Double Pea Yields: Expert Tips for Disease Prevention & Treatment

• To prevent wilt disease and ensure healthy pea yields, practice 3-4 year crop rotation, use certified seeds, and treat seeds with carbendazim, thiram (3g/kg), or bavistin before sowing.
• Combat rust disease with periodic sprays of Bavistin (with Hexaconoz, Folicure, or Indofil M-45) and powdery mildew (Bukni disease) with sulfur sprays.
• Treat bacterial blight with streptomycin (seed soaking/spraying). Maintain field cleanliness by removing diseased residues and ensuring proper drainage to prevent crop damage.
• Timely sowing, quality seeds, seed treatment, and appropriate pesticide use are crucial for doubling pea yields and ensuring good profits.
