Stress Management :: Temperature

Mitigation of High Temperature Stress

  1. Seed hardening with 0.5% CaCl2 solution for arresting membrane damage due to high temperature stress
  2. Split application of N and K fertilizers
  3. Foliar spray of 2% DAP + 1% KCl (MOP) (during the spray, sufficient moisture should be present in the soil for avoiding leaf scorching)
  4. Folar spray of 3% Kaoline
  5. Foliar spray of 0.5% zinc sulphate + 0.3 % boric acid + 0.5 % Ferrous sulphate + 1% urea
  6. Spray of 40 ppm NAA for controlling pre-mature flower / fruit drops due to high temperature stress
  7. Foliar spray of 1% Urea + 2 % MgSO4 + 0.5 % ZnSO4 (for arresting chlorophyll degradation due to high temperature stress)
  8. Foliar spray of 2% calcium nitrate spray for membrane integrity
  9. Foliar spray of 0.5 ppm Brassinolide for increasing photosynthetic activity during stress
  10. Spray of 100 ppm salicylic acid for increase stem reserve utilization and increasing Harvest Index of crops under stress
  11. Seed treatment + soil application + foliar spray of Pink Pigmented Facultative Methnaotrops (PPFM) @ 106 as a source of cytokinins.

Mitigation of Low Temperature Stress

  1. Seed hardening with 0.01% Ammonium molybdate and foliar spray of
    0.1 % ammonium molybdate at critical stages of stress
  2. Foliar spray of 2% calcium nitrate spray for membrane integrity
  3. Foliar spray of 2% DAP + 1% KCl (MOP)
  4. Foliar spray of 500 ppm cycocel for increasing root penetration in search of       moisture for alleviation
  5. Spray of 100 ppm salicylic acid
  6. Brassinolide (0.5 ppm) for enhancing photosynthetic activity of plants
  7. Seed treatment + soil application + foliar spray of Pink Pigmented Facultative Methnaotrops (PPFM) @ 106 as a source of cytokinins.
