Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation Treatments differed significantly in bacterial wilt incidence and severity in brinjal.
- Intervention effect Compost tea soil drenching had the lowest bacterial wilt incidence and severity in brinjal in both counting periods.
- Intervention effect Poultry litter soil application had the lowest bacterial wilt incidence and a similar severity trend in brinjal.
- Intervention effect IPM Lab Biopesticide soil application had the lowest bacterial wilt incidence and a similar severity trend in brinjal.
- Intervention effect Compost tea soil drenching produced maximum brinjal plant height and branches per plant.
- Intervention effect Compost tea soil drenching produced maximum brinjal fruits per plant and yield per hectare.
- Intervention effect Other treatments significantly increased brinjal growth and yield parameters relative to control.
- Intervention effect IPM Lab Biopesticide soil application gave the highest benefit cost ratio, 99.21.
- Observation BAU-Biofungicide foliar spray yielded a benefit cost ratio of 35.7.
- Observation Compost tea soil drenching yielded a benefit cost ratio of 19.5.
- Intervention effect Compost tea soil drenching gave the highest percentage increase in gross margin despite a comparatively lower benefit cost ratio.
- Recommendation The authors concluded that compost tea soil drenching may be an alternative for control of bacterial wilt in brinjal.
