Diseases of pan(Piper betle) in Sylhet, Assam

III. Effect of manuring on the incidence ofPhytophthora foot-rot and leaf-rot diseases

  • Published:
Proceedings / Indian Academy of Sciences

Conclusions and Summary

As a result of the experiments conducted with different manures it was found that the percentage of death ofpan plants due to the attack ofP. parasitica is not influenced by the nature of the fertilizing material. The percentage of death has been found to be practically the same in the plots receiving oil-cake, sodium nitrate, ammonium sulphate singly or sodium nitrate or ammonium sulphate in combinations with superphosphate and potassium sulphate. The yield of leaves, however, has been found slightly more in the oil-cake treated plots.
