Powdery mildew

Application of Sulphur dust (350 mesh) in the early morning will protect new flush or spray Wettable sulphur 0.2% or Tridemorph 0.05%
will control powdery mildew.

Spray of wettable sulphur 0.2% (2gm/litre of water) provides reasonable control but it may cause phytotoxicity, i.e., it may burn flowers and young fruits if sprays are applied during hot sunny days. Further, due to
increased disease pressure, sulphur could not offer satisfactory control of powdery mildew. Hence, spraying of
Dinocap (@1gm/L) or Tridemorph (@1gm/L) can be done alternatively once in two weeks till fruit set stage.
Recently, apart from theses some new fungicides like Hexaconazole (0.5ml/L), Penconazole (0.5ml/L),
Flusilasole(0.4ml/L), Myclobutanil (1gm /L) are also proved to be effective against mango powdery mildew,
which are available in different trade names in market. If this disease is at advanced stage, it may be too late
