“…It is an important cruciferous vegetable in Jammu and Kashmir, West Bengal, Maharashtra, Assam, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Odisha, and other parts of South India (Mishra et al, 2012) [10] . It is regarded for its short duration and hardiness, with a cultivated area of 2712 hectares and a production of 55118 metric tonnes in Jammu province (Bhushan et al, 2020) [3] . The fleshy knob, a stem growth above ground, is high in vitamins A and C, folic acid, dietary fibre, and minerals such as copper, calcium, potassium, manganese, iron, and phosphorus (Kumar et al, 2018) [5] .…”

Knol-khol (Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes L.) is a cool-season crop widely cultivated in Jammu and Kashmir, West Bengal, and Karnataka. This study aimed to explore various aspects of downy mildew in Knol-khol, assessing disease status, and epidemiological studies. Symptoms on Knol-khol manifested as small angular spots with a pale yellow color, later turning black. On the lower side of the leaves, affected areas were covered with a grey-white downy growth containing numerous conidiophores bearing conidia. Morphological characteristics of Peronospora parasitica showed aseptate, hyaline conidia, and globose to spherical in shape, with an average length and breadth of 22.99 µm and 20.67 µm, respectively. Survey results in the Jammu division indicated considerable variation in disease incidence and intensity across locations in districts, Jammu and Samba, on different days after transplanting (DAT) -30, 40, 50, and 60. Overall mean incidence and intensity recorded during these DAT periods were 12.66%, 9.73%; 21.77%, 17.48%; 41.07%, 36.02%; and 53.15%, 43.67%, respectively. The disease was significantly influenced by weather conditions during the cropping period, with a significant variation of 99%. Correlation data between weather parameters and disease intensity revealed highly significant positive correlations of 0.94 and 0.84 with the disease index for maximum and minimum temperatures. A highly significant negative correlation of -0.83 and -0.72 was observed with maximum and minimum relative humidity, respectively. However, a nonsignificant and negative correlation of -0.49 was noted with rainfall.

Kashmir valley is located between the Pir-Panjal and the Karakoram Range in the India. The valley is encircled by mountain ranges characterized by snow covered high mountain peaks. Kashmir is known for its scenic beauty throughout the world named as "paradise on earth." One of the main factors backing to this fame of Kashmir is its rich biodiversity corresponding with a wide variety of habitats. Agricultural growth is essential for any region to alleviate rural poverty, ensure food security and create job opportunities for people living in rural and urban areas. Traditionally, agriculture has been practicable and sustainable industry in the Kashmir. By tradition it has been the predominant sector in the Kashmir valley which supports around above 70 per cent of its population directly or indirectly is associated with agriculture and allied activities. The important features like topography, physiographic feature, diversity of habitat especially Karewas and elevation are the key elements which creates the difference between hill and plain areas. Hilly areas as generally offer a vast scope for the growers and cultivation of mixed crops like, cereals, pulses, oilseeds, Saffron, maize, vegetables. The most important and dominant feature of hill farming is the small holding, sloping marginal lands. This region has its own specific geo-climatic condition, which determine the cropping pattern and its productivity allied activities like horticulture, dairy development, fisheries, livestock and sericulture also play significant role in the agriculture sector.
