Effect of Variable Doses of Different Fungicides for the Controlling of Sugarcane Sett Borne Diseases Under Old Himalayan Piedmont Plain

M. A. K. AL. Azad
Principal Scientific Officer
Regional Sugarcane Research Station, Thakurgaon

Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The experiment was conducted at RSRS farm, Thakurgaon to findout the effect of different fungicides for controlling the sett borne diseases of sugarcane. From the experimental results it was obtained that the highest germination was in treatment Evazim 50wp @ 1g/l water (50.27%). In case of tiller count, the highest number was observed in Genuine 50wp @ 1g/l water (214.02x103) and the maximum number of millable cane was found in Bavistin 50wp @ 1.5g/l water (97.72x103). The highest cane yield was recorded in Bavistin 50wp @ 2g/l water (53.05t/ha) treatment. The highest Brix% was recorded in Genuine 50wp @ 1.5g/l water (27.70). Considering stalk height, maximum and minimum height was observed in Bavistin 50wp @ 2g/l water (2.70m) and Genuine 50wp @ 1g/l water (2.19m) treatments respectively. No major disease (smut, wilt and red rot) incidence was observed during the month of April to November. However, results showed that Evazim 50wp @ 1g/l water was the most effective treatment followed by Bavistin 50wp @ 1g/l water and Bavistin 50wp @ 1.5g/l water.

Keywords: Sugarcane, fungicides, sett born disease

Location: RSRS farm, Thakurgaon

Start Date: 25-11-2008

End Date: 02-12-2009

Program Area: Pest Management

Commodity: Sugarcane

Objectives:

1. Finding out the effective fungicides and doses for controlling sugarcane sett borne disease in Old Himalayan Piedmont Plain. 2. Keeping sugarcane setts free from the attack of pathogen & ensuring good germination to overcome germination gap in the sugarcane fields.

Methodology:

The experiment was conducted at RSRS farm, Thakurgaon under Old Himalayan Piedmont Plain for the cropping season 2008-09. Two factors of treatment were introduced in the experiment. Factor A: Fungicides and Factor B: Doses. The fungicides were Bavistin 50wp, Genuine 50wp, Evazim 50wp and Control; and the doses were 1g/l water, 1.5g/l water, 2g/l water and control. The experiment was set in randomized complete block design with three replications and two budded setts were planted in trench.

Achievement/Findings:

The highest Brix% was recorded in Genuine 50wp @ 1.5g/l water (27.70). Considering stalk height, maximum and minimum height was observed in Bavistin 50wp @ 2g/l water (2.70m) and Genuine 50wp @ 1g/l water (2.19m) treatments respectively. No major disease (smut, wilt and red rot) incidence was observed during the month of April to November.
