Query
Asked about the management of Bud rot in coconut.
KCC answer
Cut and remove the affected parts of the crown,Burn all diseased tissues removed from the palm. Pouring Mancozeb solution (5 gram /300 ml of water) coupled with placing of small perforated sachets (2 no) containing 3-4 gram Mancozeb 75 WP in the inner most leaf axils is found to be effective. When it rains, a small quantity of the fungicide is released from the sachets to the leaf base, thus protecting the palm.
