Dr. S. N. Sunil Pandey, agricultural meteorologist of Chandrashekhar Azad Agricultural Technology University, said on Wednesday that there is a risk of many types of diseases, insects and weeds in the paddy crop. Out of which Motha is also a type of weed. It hinders the growth of the crop.
Measures to prevent motha weed
He told that almost half of the month of July has passed. In many states, paddy transplantation has been completed or will be completed in the next 10 days. Farmers are engaged in transplanting paddy crop, but after transplanting paddy, there is a danger of many types of weeds in the crop, which damages the crop. When the crop is damaged, its yield also decreases, due to which farmers have to suffer a lot. Motha is also one of the major weeds in paddy crop. This weed is no less than a curse for the crop. It is a weed that completely destroys the crop. Meteorologists say that it hinders the growth of the crop. That is why farmers should use pesticides to control it at the right time, so that their crop develops properly and their yield can also be good.

How to prevent it Weather scientists say that this weed grows in the field along with the crop plantation. To prevent it, farmers should weed the paddy crop twice. Also spray insecticides. To save their crops from Motha, farmers can save their crops by spraying Pendimethalin 30 EC, Beauty Flour 50 percent EC, Protein Flour Oxyfluorfen, Pyrazosulfuran Ethyl WP. Farmers can save their crops from Motha by spraying these medicines on the advice of agricultural experts 2 to 3 days after planting the crop to protect their crops from this weed.
