Management of PSND in groundnut
To control PSND in kharif groundnut, seed treatment with imidacloprid @1 m.l and mancozeb@ 3 g per kg of seed; intercropping with redgram at 7:1 ratio; border cropping with 3-4 rows of bajra/jowar and one spraying of monocrotophos @1.6 m.l/lit was followed. By practicing this farmers got nearly 8500/- net income per hectare.
