- Abstract
This article provides information on the prevalence and management of black rot disease in cabbage. Black rot is a bacterial disease that can cause significant economic losses in cabbage crops. The disease is more severe in low-lying areas with extended periods of wetness and high temperatures. Control measures include seed treatments and foliar sprays with certain chemicals, but alternative management strategies are needed due to environmental and health risks associated with antibiotics and pesticides. The article presents the results of experiments evaluating the efficacy of various chemicals and plant extracts against the disease. Streptomycin sulfate, Bactrinashak, copper oxychloride, cuprous oxide, Vitex negundo, and Eucalyptus hybrid were found to be effective in reducing the disease index. These findings suggest that these chemicals and plant extracts could be used as alternatives to streptomycin sulfate in managing black rot in cabbage.
