Management of Ragged Stunt Virus in Paddy
Ragged stunt virus affecting rice crops is seen mainly in tropical areas where the cultivation is throughout the year. It can affect the plants right from the seedling stage and grow with the plants.
The main symptom is the green leaves with spiky or rough edges. The leaves turn yellow, or yellowish brown close to the bottom. They also show spiralling, especially the leaves close to the base. The upper part of the plant still grows branches from the joints which is unusual. These affected plants fail to develop panicles.
Note: As the virus is spread by brown plant hopper, spraying the below insecticides will control the spread of the virus in the field.
Each of these insecticides must be used at different dilution levels to be most effective. This must be done along with proper preventive measures and the usage of resistant varieties of rice.
