Dr. T. V. Sathe, Dr. S. S. Patil

Abstract :

Vermiwash acts as pesticide, disease curative and crop tonic and increase the yield of crops in multiples. Therefore, vermiwash have been tested against indigenous and hapus mango fruit productivity in Kolhapur region of Maharashtra, India. Vermiwash increased fruit productivity from 1.00 (control) to 8.5 (treated) and 1.00 (control) to 3.5 (treated) per fruiting body in indigenous and hapus mango varieties respectively. During the study (Oct. – Feb.) no insect pests and bacterial or fungal diseases were noted on the crop indicating its pesticidal and disease curative property. 1 lit of vermiwash in 1 lit of water was the dose used in the experiments.
