Apply irrigation to paddy crop, two days after the ponded water has infiltrated into the soil. Care should be taken that the field does not develop cracks.

• To save the rice crop from sheath blight, keep the bunds of the field clean by removing grasses. If the symptoms of disease observed, spray Galelio way@400ml or Nativo @80 g or Amitsar Top/Tilt/Folicur/Pikapika@200ml in 200 litres of water per acre. Direct the spray towards the base of crop.
• To the basmati crop, apply urea in two equal splits at 3 and 6 weeks after transplanting.
• Rogue out and destroy foot rot infected plants from the field.
