In Jharkhand prepared nursery bed for long duration rice varieties utilizing the recent monsoon rain. In Western Plateau Zone of Jharkhand are continued sowing of kharif crops like rice, maize, groundnut, urd, arhar etc. utilizing monsoon rain. Prepared the land for sowing to transplanting of kharif vegetables like bhindi, bean, tomato, French bean, cauliflower, cabbage etc. Undertaken nursery sowing of rice, sowing of maize, arhar, vegetables like okra, bitter gourd, cluster bean, cow pea, ridge gourd, lady’s finger, brinjal, tomato and chillies in Orissa utilizing monsoon rain. In Khurda district of Orissa completed the sowing of arhar by this week. In West Bengal Undertaken sowing of maize, direct sowing of aus rice and wet seed bed preparation of aman rice. In Bihar Undertaken sowing of kharif maize, kharif fodder crops (jowar, Dinanath grass and bajra) and transplanting of fruit trees. Nursery sowing of scented rice is also transplant rice seedlings in medium and low land areas. Suitable varieties of the crops for sowing or transplanting are mentioned in Annexure II. To protect maize crop from water logging, arrange proper drainage facilities. Fruit and shoot borer in brinjal has been found in Cuttack district of Orissa. To control it install Pheromone trap and spray 4 g Sevin WP or 2 ml Malathion in 1 litre water alternatively. Under prevailed weather condition, in Terai Zone of West Bengal, there are chances of incidence of blast and sheath blight in the nursery bed of rice. To manage this disease spray Bavistin @ 1 g to litre of water. There may also be infestation of vine and fruit rot in pointed gourd and Phytophthora in betel vine in this region; to manage this diseases, spray Mancozeb 64% + Metalaxyl 8% @ 1.5 g to litre of water. Due to cloudy weather and high humidity in old Alluvial Zone of West Bengal, there is possibility of infestation of collar rot in yam; to manage this disease, spray Carbendazim @ 1 g and Thiram @ 2 g together per litre of water.

Under prevailed weather condition, cucurbitaceous crops may be infested by fruit fly in Hill Zone of West Bengal. For protection against fruit fly, the crops may be baited with any contact insecticide like Carbaryl with a mixture @ 1 g Carbaryl and 10 g sugar in 100 litres of water. Fruit and shoot borer in brinjal has been found in Cuttack district of Orissa. To control it install Pheromone trap and spray 4 g Sevin WP or 2 ml Malathion in 1 litre water alternatively. Undertaken plant protection measures after current spells of rain in the region. Stages of major crops are mentioned in Annexure I. Animal Husbandry Due to frequent showers for last few days in North Eastern Plateau Zone of Orissa, Coastal Saline Zone of West Bengal and South Eastern Plateau Zone of Jharkhand, there is a chance of fungal diseases in poultry birds. To prevent it poultry litter should be rearranged by mixing lime in the litter. RD vaccine should be given immediately to the chicks which are 7 days old. To prevent coxidiosis disease spray antibiotic solution named Kohrsolin-TH in the poultry house. Due to heavy rainfall in Coastal Saline Zone of West Bengal cattle may be attacked by ulcer in foot and mouth. Wash the wound by Potassium permanganate and keep them in dry condition. In Old Alluvial Zone of West Bengal, vaccination against the diseases viz. FMD, HS & BQ may be carried out to protect the dairy animals.

In Mizoram, due to rainfall, infestation of trunk borer is observed in Khasi Mandarin; farmers are advised to monitor and kill larva by inserting a wire inside the tunnel. Also, due to continuous rain, the activity of weevil is high and incidence of pseudo stem weevil is more in banana; farmers are advised to remove unwanted suckers, dry and infected leaves, sheaths and petioles. In Mild Tropical Plain Zone of Tripura, due to the prevailing cloudy and humid weather, chances of attack of stem borer in upland rice is more. Farmers are advised to monitor crop and spray Rogor or Monocrotophos @ 2 ml per litre of water or Carbofuran 3G @ 5 kg per kani. There is also more chance of attack of fungal diseses in the vegetables. Farmers are advised to spray Calixin @ 1 ml per litre of water to manage the attack. Due to excessive soil moisture, there is chance of root and stem rot disease in sesame in Mild Tropical Plain Zone of Tripura.
