Deep learning, a subfield of artificial intelligence, has gained significant role in various domains, including agriculture. With the growing need to improve agricultural practices, enhance productivity, and face challenges such as crop yield prediction, disease detection, weed management, irrigation optimization, and livestock monitoring, deep lea...

Groundnut (Arachis hypogea) is an important source of edible oil and protein. Diseases caused by more than 55 pathogens are one of the major constraints in attaining high production of groundnut as they reduce the yield to the tune of 70%. Among them, leaf blight of groundnut caused by Alternaria alternata is a major disease causing 22% of pod redu...

In the coastal vegetable belt of Odisha, Ralstonia solanacearum-caused chilli bacterial wilt is a fairly well-known disease. It causes around 100 percent yield loss in the farmer’s field. The condition is extremely complex, and numerous physical, cultural, chemical, and biological approaches have been tried and failed to control it. The purpose...

Zero Tillage (ZT) is a critical agricultural practice that emphasizes minimal soil disturbance. This study explores the future prospects of ZT, focusing on three essential dimensions: technological advancements, climate change considerations, and potential growth in adoption rates. The technological innovations in precision agriculture, robotics, a...

For integrated disease management of root and stem rot of cowpea caused by Rhizoctonia solani experiments were conducted using different plant products, bio control agents, chemicals and organic amendments during Kharif of 2014-15. Out of seven phytoextracts tested against Rhizoctonia solani, the maximum inhibition was recorded in garlic(100%) fo...

Leaf Blight of Mungbean caused by Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid is one of the more severe yield destabilizing factors causing serious yield losses each year in Central India. Mungbean was observed severely affected by leaf blight in Kharif as well as during summer season. A total of 52 germplasm lines of mungbean were screened against Macrop...

Occurrence of leaf blight disease has become a major constraint for cultivation of mung bean. Considering the fact, below investigation was carried out for this pathological problem. The efficacies of various botanicals were evaluated against Macrophomina phaseolina causing leaf blight of mungbean. The phyto-extracts of six plant species were evalu...
