*AGRICULTURAL INPUTS MEASURING CUPS*

•Agricultural measuring cups are specialized tools used by farmers to accurately measure the quantities of agricultural inputs like pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers.

•They are in various sizes, materials and designs.

•Using measuring cups when working with fertilizers and chemicals offers several benefits:

Using the right amount ensures the product works as intended.

Promote consistency in application rates, which is essential for optimal plant growth and minimizing environmental impact.

Accurate measurements help prevent over-application, which can harm plants, soil, and the environment and also waste of money.

Under-application might be ineffective, leading to poor pest control or insufficient fertilization.

Measuring cups, agro-chemicals, hybrid seeds, fertilizers and knapsacks are available at *Farm Distributors* branches nationwide.

🌱 Nematodes in Agriculture – Protect Your Crops

Nematodes are tiny soil pests that attack plant roots, causing stunted growth, yellowing, wilting, and poor yields. They silently affect crops like to***co, maize, tomatoes, and vegetables, often going unnoticed until serious damage is done.

✅ Prevention Practices:

Rotate crops to break nematode life cycles

Use resistant/tolerant crop varieties

Improve soil with organic matter

Remove infected plant material

Apply bio or synthetic nematicides early

🧪 Recommended Products:

PL-Nema Bio-Nematicide – Controls harmful nematodes, improves root health, and boosts yields across many crops

Velum Synthetic Nematicide – Fast-acting chemical solution for effective nematode control in high-pressure areas

*ONION PURPLE BLOTCH*
By S. Maturure 0785 020 177

*Quick Facts*
➢ Purple Blotch in onion is a major threat to the onion and it is caused by the fungus Alternaria porri.
➢ It survives on infected crop debris or near the soil surface.
➢ It resumes its cycle with the production of spores as warm, wet conditions occur.
➢ Garlic, shallots and leeks may also be affected.

*Favorable Conditions and Spread*
➢ The disease favors warm moist conditions, which prevail in prolonged rains or leaf wetness.
➢ Wind, irrigation water or splashing rain disperse the spores to healthy plants and fields.

*Symptoms*
➢ Symptoms first appear on older leaves or seed stalks as small water-soaked lesions that quickly develop white
centers.
➢ As the lesions progress, they enlarge and turn brown to purple with yellow concentric rings on the margins.
➢ Under favourable condition, the plants wilt, loose erectness and destruction occur within 10 days.

*Control Measures*
➢ Healthy seeds should be used and practice crop rotation.
➢ Seed should be treated with Thiram or Apron star @ 4 g per kg of seeds and 10g per 4kg of seeds respectively.
➢ Apply preventive fungicides like FD Mancozeb, FD Copper oxychloride and FD Chlorothalonil.
➢ On heavy infestations use curative fungicides like Fivestar, Tebuconazole, Folicur and Propineb

*RING SMARTER NOT HARDER*
Introducing the *New* BULL NOSE RING APPLICATOR

Uses of a Bull Nose Ring Applicator:
●Inserting Bull Nose Rings: This is the primary function. The applicator holds the open bull nose ring securely and allows for controlled placement through the cartilage of the nasal septum.
●Facilitating Handling and Management: Once a bull nose ring is in place (inserted using the applicator), it provides a secure and humane point for:
● Leading: Attaching a lead rope or chain for moving cattle.
● Tying: Securing cattle for examination, treatment, or loading.
● Restraining: Providing a point of control during various procedures.

Advantages of Using a Bull Nose Ring Applicator:
● Safety for the Animal: The applicator ensures a quick and relatively clean insertion, minimizing discomfort and the risk of injury compared to makeshift methods.
● Safety for the Handler: It provides a controlled way to insert the ring, keeping the handler's hands away from the animal's head and potential movements.
●Efficiency and Speed: The applicator streamlines the process, allowing for faster and more consistent ring placement, especially when dealing with multiple animals.
●Proper Ring Closure: Many applicators are designed to help ensure the bull nose ring is properly closed and secured, reducing the chance of it falling out.
● Durability and Reusability: Quality applicators are typically made from durable materials like stainless steel, allowing for repeated use over many years, making them a cost-effective investment.
● Ease of Use: Most applicators are designed to be relatively simple to operate with minimal training.
