NOTE: For the first year donot immidietaly substitute 100% chemical fertilizer with the SIESTO GREEN products, as the soil is used to chemical fertilizer, it may affect the output. So the best way to substitute is by reducing 50% of chemical input in the first year, 25% the following 2nd year, & then another 10% by the 3rd year. After the 3rd year use synthetic fertilizer / inorganic fertilizer if their is a requirement depending on the soil health.
CROP SCHEDULE FOR BRINJAL (EGGPLANT)
| Sr. No. | Treatment / Application | Product | Dose / Acre | APPLICATION | Management |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Vegetative – Dissolve in 20 to 200 ltr. of water as required for 1 acre of land and apply through Drip Irrigation or drench. | POORNIMA KIT | 1 KIT | Apply after transplantation that is week 2, week 9, and week 17. | It is a balanced form of nutrients that includes NPK, Zinc, Cropforce NP, Humigrow NP, and Mycorrhiza NP |
| 2 | Vegetative – Mix all with the required amount of water and apply through drip irrigation, flood irrigation, or drenching as per farmer’s availability. | NPK + Humigrow | 2 Caps + 120gm | Apply it in week 6, week 13, and week 21. | It is a balanced form of Nutrition that includes NPK. |
| 3 | Flowering/ Fruiting – Mix both in 20 – 200 liters of water as per requirement and spray it in the plants. | ALP + Sonhabihan | 250gm + 250gm/ 200 lit. of water | Apply it in week 10 (When flowerings are seen) and week 18. | It is a Micronutrient and PGP that helps in Growth, Fruit set, and the quality of the produce. |
PEST ATTACKS, BACTERIAL, OR FUNGAL MANAGEMENT
| PEST / BACTERIAL / FUNGAL | IDENTIFICATION IN CROP | SYMPTOMS | SUGGESTED PRODUCT |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shoot & Fruit Borer |  |
This pest created serious damage to the leaves, flower buds, and fruits. | Traps + Meta + BT |
| Jassids |  |
The nymphs and adults will suck the sap of the leaves. The affected leaf will curl upward along the margins and turn yellow color with burnt-up patches. | Lifeline |
| Mites |  |
Most common pests of brinjal plants. This is infected due to low humidity levels. Nymphs and adults will suck sap and form white patches on the leaves. | Lifeline + Traps + Meta + BT |
| Mealy Bug |  |
Nymphs and adults will suck sap from the leaves, tender shoots, and fruits. | Traps + Meta |
| Root-knot Nematode |  |
This pest will cause more severe damage to seedlings than the older plants. The affected plants will develop galls on the roots. | Meta + BT + Pacliq |
| Damping-off |  |
This disease causes severe damage to the plants. The main cause of this disease is high soil, moisture, and moderate temperature with high humidity levels during the rainy season. | Indofa + Bacillus |
| Leaf spot |  |
The disease symptoms are chlorotic lesions in angular to irregular shapes, later the lesion turns grayish-brown. | Indofa |
| Fruit Rot |  |
High humidity is the main cause of this disease. The symptoms of the disease are water-soaked lesions on the fruit, which later enlarges. | Indofa + Bacillus |
| Wilt |  |
This disease will infect young plants and mature plants. The infected young plants show dwarfing and stunting. | Indofa + Bacillus + BT + Lifeline |
| Powdery |  |
The leaves show white, powdery spots that enlarge to cover the entire leaf. | Lifeline + Indofa + BT + Bacillus |
| Anthracnose |  |
Multiple infections are common. The spots darken, expand along the length of the fruit, and merge forming large brown slightly raised warty patches, especially at the base of the fruits. | Indofa + Bacillus |
| Leafminer |  |
Leafminers are small insects that tunnel through the leaves of plants. The tunnels appear as white or brown squiggly lines on the leaves. | Lifeline + Traps + Meta + BT |
NUTRITION DEFICIENCY
| Nutrient | Identification | Symptoms | Suggested Product |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nitrogen |  |
The whole plant looks pale to yellowish green, with early senescence of older leaves, increased root growth, and stunted shoot growth resulting in a low shoot/root ratio. | Azoss Caps |
| Phosphorus |  |
Leaves turn dark, dull, blue-green, and may become pale in severe deficiency. Reddish, reddish-violet, or violet color develops from increased anthocyanin synthesis. Symptoms appear first on older parts of the plant. | PSB Plus Caps |
| Potassium |  |
The leaves turn yellow and brown, and the edges of the leaves may become scorched. The plant may also have stunted growth and produce small fruit. | Potash Grow Caps |
| Zinc |  |
Zinc deficiency in eggplant can cause the leaves to become smaller and distorted. The leaves may also develop chlorosis, which is a yellowing of the tissue between the veins. | Zinc Grow Caps |
| Sulphur |  |
The leaves become yellow and the veins remain green. The leaves may also become brittle and curl up at the edges. | Sulphur Caps |
| Manganese |  |
The veins of middle to upper leaves of manganese-deficient plants appear green against the mottled pale green to yellow of the blade. | ALP |
| Copper |  |
Copper deficiency in eggplant can result in stunted growth, discoloration of leaves and flowers, decreased crop yields, weakness in stems and roots, and chlorosis. | ALP |
KEY FARMING POINTS
KEY FARMING POINTS
- SOIL TYPE = Eggplants grow best in well-drained soil that is rich in organic matter.
- SOIL PH = The soil should have a pH between 5.5 and 6.5.
- CLIMATE / TEMPERATURE = Eggplants grow best in warm weather with temperatures between 21 to 29 degrees Celsius. They are sensitive to frost and cold temperatures.
- SEASON OF PLANTING = Eggplants are planted during the summer season, which is from March to June.
- SPACING = Eggplants should be spaced 18 to 24 inches apart in rows that are 30 to 36 inches apart.
- MANURING & FERTILIZATION = Fertilizers requirement depends on the fertility or quality of the soil.
- WATER MANAGEMENT = Eggplants require regular watering to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. They should be watered deeply once a week or more often during hot, dry weather.
- HARVESTING DURATION = Eggplants are usually ready to harvest 65 to 80 days after planting. The fruit should be harvested when it is fully grown but before it becomes overripe and loses its shine.
- YIELD = The yield of eggplants depends on several factors such as the variety, growing conditions, and management practices.
NOTE:
- Seed Treatment kit is optional.
- Bio-pesticides or Bio-fungicides can be applied on a preventive dosage or when any pest, fungal or bacterial diseases are identified.
- Recommended dosage on this crop schedule can vary depending on soil health, environmental conditions, and pest attacks.
- 1-acre POORNIMA KIT contains: -
- NPK caps = 2 caps
- Zinc caps = 1 cap
- Cropforce Nano Powder = 120gm
- Humigrow Nano Powder = 120 gm
- Mycorrhiza nano powder = 100 gm
PRECAUTIONS: -
- Biofertilizer is not a chemical fertilizer hence do not mix with agrochemicals.
- Do not expose to direct sunlight or heat.
- Use Bio-fertilizer before or after 3-4 days of use of chemical fertilizer.
- Please, clean the sprayer before the use of Bio-fertilizer or bio-pesticide.
