Chemical Control of rust disease in groundnut

• Spray chlorothalonil 0.2%; or mancozeb 0.25% or Hexaconazole/propaconazole to reduce disease incidence.
• Chlorothalonil 0.2% spray has been found effective against rust and late leaf spot, when sprayed 30 days after germination till 15 days before harvesting at regular 10-15 day intervals.
• However, suitable disease forecast system based on temperature, humidity, cloudy weather, and rainfall pattern if available is useful to save the fungicide and spraying costs .
• Calixin at 0.5 ml/liter of water or Kavach at 2 g/liter of water controls rust.
• Calixin is effective against rust but not against leaf spots.
