Detail:

For the treatment, 10 pieces each of 7 inches of Thhevri plant are taken. These pieces are planted around the farm in which the brown rot disease is prevalent caused by (Xanthomonas campestris pv. oryzae). While planting, castor (Ricinus communis) is also crushed and with that smoke is given. This treatment effectively controls brown rot disease in paddy (Oryza sativa) crop. This practice has been in use from last 10 years. This is traditional practice.
