Abstract:
Eleven treatment combinations were compared in the field during kharif season of 2006 for management of some jute diseases at Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU), Mymensingh. The effectiveness of 11 treatment combinations viz. T1 = Vitavax-200 + Malathion 57 EC, T2 = Hot water + Malathion 57 EC, T3 = Recommended Urea + MP + TSP + Vitavax-200, T4 = Recommended Urea+MP+ TSP + vitavax-200 + Malathion 57 EC, T5 = Recommended Urea + MP + Hot water, T6 = Recommended Urea + MP + TSP + Hot water + Malathion 57 EC, T7 = Double dose of Urea+MP + TSP + Vitavax-200, T8 = Double dose of Urea + MP + TSP + Vitavax-200 +Malathion 57 EC, T9 = Double dose of Urea + MP + TSP + Hot water, T10 = Double dose of Urea + MP + TSP + Hot water + Malathion 57 EC and T11 = Control were used for the management of anthracnose, black band, stem rot and jute yellow mosaic disease. The treatments showed very pronounced effect in reducing infection and disease development by fungi and virus compared to control. The treatment T6 which included seed treatment with hot water, application of recommended dose of fertilizer and spraying of insecticide Malathion 57 EC has proven to be the best both in limiting diseases and increasing yield. This management strategy may be recommended for the farmers for greater and quality jute production
