| Details Of Innovation | For control of red leaf spot disease in paddy, the seeds are soaked in 20 per cent leaf extract (Mentha sativa) for 24 hours. This also increases the germination rate and vigour of the seedlings(See Honey Bee 4(2&3): 19,1993; 3(3&4): 9,1992; 8(4): 3,1997; 9(1): 4,1998 for practices on pest management in sugarcane, castor and pulse respectively.) |
