Chilli (Capsicum annuum) is an important spice as well as vegetable global cultivated crop. It is used in many cuisines but also found to have many medicinal properties. Chilli (Capsicum annum L.) is an important cash crop of Central Telangana region. In Khammam District chilli is grown in 21,340 ha area with 1.02 lakh tons annual production (AMC 2018-19).Chilli (Capsicum annum L.) crop is main cash crop to the farming community next to Paddy and maize crops in the District. Cost of cultivation of Chilli was high than other crops in spite of that the farmers were interested to cultivate the Chilli (Capsicum annum L.) crop by getting high net returns. During 2019-20 majority area of Chilli (Capsicum annum L.) crop was severely affected by fruit rot disease in the District, the extent of disease observed up to 53.6% in some areas at second picking stage in the month of December. The percent disease incidence in Khammam district is varies from 36.0% to 53.6%. The maximum disease incidence was recorded in Kusumanchi (53.6%) followed by Khammam Rural (48.5%), Karepalli (47.0%), Konijerla (45.40%). Kamepalli (45.3%), Thallada (43.4%), Mudigonda (42.8%) and Enkur(41.6%) in the month of December.
Several management practices have been reported to help crops partially or entirely overcome flood damage. For example, the application of nitrogen (N) fertilizers overcomes N deficiency, while natural or synthetic hormones are used to correct hormone imbalances, and the addition of fungicides help control soil-borne pathogens. We recently conducted a flooding experiment with bush bean, cowpea, and sweet corn. This article recommends some practices to alleviate flooding damage of vegetables. This document is SL 206, one of a series of the Soil and Water Sciences Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

The on farm demonstration was carried out in farmer's fields in five locations of Khammam District of Central Telangana Zone in three consecutive seasons of kharif 2015, 2016 and 2017 by District Agricultural Advisory and Transfer of Technology Centre, Khammam. To study on high density planting of cotton genotypes under rainfed light soils. Four genotypes and three spacing's were imposed to find out optimum plant stand along with cotton genotypes viz., V1-SURAJ, V2-NDLH-1938, V3-WGCV-48 and V4-BT (NEERAJA) under three spacing's S1-45X10 cm, S2-90X30 cm S3-100X100 cm in rainfed light soils. The investigation result on pooled basis showed that the maximum plant height (164.8 cm), sympodia branches (16.6), Significantly highest No of bolls/Plant (45.9) and No of bolls/ m -2 (110.9) and highest Boll weight (g) (3.50) and higher seed cotton yield (1811.6 kg/ha) was recorded in (V4) BT (NEERAJA) over other varieties. However V2 (NDLH-1938) and V3 (WGCV-48) were at par each other. The lowest plant height (132.4 cm), Sympodia branches (9.8), No of bolls/Plant (19.7) and No of bolls/ m -2 (78.7), Boll weight (g) (3.16), and yield (966.5 kg/ha) was recorded in V1 (SURAJ) variety because V1, V2 and V3 genotypes were non BT varieties similarly the pest incidence were more than V4 (BT-NEERAJA). S3-100X100 cm plant geometry recorded highest plant height (154.9 cm), Sympodia branches per plant (16.1), No of bolls/Plant (49.7) and significantly maximum No of bolls/ m -2 (177.0) and seed cotton yield (1828.6 kg/ha) recorded with S2-90 X30 cm. The lowest seed cotton yield (1213.2 kg/ha) was noticed with S1-45 X10 cm due to closer spacing greater competition between inter plants.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
