2. Protective And Curative Action
It absorbed through the roots and green tissues
with translocation acropetally [upward] to plant parts.
Batista used for control of externally and internally
fungal disease as well as soil borne fungi on a wide
range of crops.
Batista is found very effective under
prophylctic foliar spray application.

3. Protective And Curative Action
Batista is a Suspension Concentrate [SC] or Flowables
in which the solid active ingredient is dispersed in
a liquid together with additives to form a lastingly
stable water dispersible .
Batista is water based formulation there by
it is ecofriendly in nature.

4. Method of Preparation for Application
Shake the bottle vigorously for 2 - 5 minutes to form a homogeneous
mixture before dilution. Batista having instant dispersion when it
adds to water and does not allow the spray solution to settle down
for a longer period, there by no frequent agitation required during
the spray .
The prepared mixture should be sprayed within 30-40nminutes after
preparing the mixture. If the spraying period is longer then stir the
solution at an interval of every 40-45 minutes..
Preferably spray in early morning. Batista when sprayed forms a
thin lm covering on the total exposed area of plant parts..

5. Method of Preparation for Application
Thus it provides a much better protection against fungus infestation
than dusting or spraying with powder formulations, as it stays on
plants for longer period as a ne lm.
Batista is very effective in adverse climatic conditions reduces
surface runoff and provides uniform coverage over the foliages
with enhanced stability & penetration

Downey Mildew of Onion
Downy mildew symptoms appear on older leaves as elongated patches that
vary in size and are slightly paler than the rest of the foliage. With moisture,
these areas become covered with a violet-gray mycelium,which contains
spores that may be spread to surrounding healthy tissue

16. Diseases In Different Crops (Vegetables)
Purple Blotch on Onion
Alternaria porri, a serious disease that effects onion foliage .During the years
when weather conditions favor disease development the fungus infects dead
and dying leaf tissue which show as small, white and sunken lesions.
The lesions develop purple centers and get larger in time.Note the conidia
on top right.
Alternaria porri and Peronospora destructor spores develop in high humidity,
rain or persistent dew with an optimum range of 77 to 85 degrees. Fungal activity
of alternaria is reduced by temperatures lower than 55 degrees. Warm, moist
weather after midseason favors infection by alternaria

Powdery mildew, also known as oidium, is caused by the fungus Uncinula
necator. The powdery mildew fungus overwinters as cleistothecia (tiny, round,
black fruiting bodies), in bark, on canes, leftover fruit, and on leaves on the
ground Spores (ascospores) from the overwintering cleistothecia are released
in the spring after a rainfall of at least 2.5 mm. For primary infection to occur
the spores require at least 12-15 hours of continuous wetness at 10-15 to
infect developing plant tissue.

27. Diseases In Different Crops (Fruits)
Mango
Powdery mildew, also known as oidium , Oidium mangiferae attacks the young
tissue of all parts of the inorescence, leaves and fruit. Infection shows initially
as small patches of white powdery mycelium, which may later coalesce to cover
large areas. On older leaves and fruit, infected tissue has a purplish-brown cast as
the white growth weathers away

28. Diseases In Different Crops (Fruits)
Apple
Apple scab (Venturia inaequalis) attacks both leaves and fruit. The fungal
disease forms pale yellow or olive-green spots on the upper surface of leaves.
Dark, velvety spots may appear on the lower surface. Severely infected leaves
become twisted and puckered and may drop early in the summe

29. Diseases In Different Crops (Fruits)
The rst signs of leaf spot are small, purple spots appearing on the upper surfaces of
leaves and enlarging into circles 1/8 to ¼ inch in diameter. Leaf margins remain purple,
while the centers turn brown, tan, or yellowish brown. After a few weeks, secondary enlargement
of leaf spots occurs. Because this is not a uniform expansion, the spots become irregular or lobed
in shape, at which time they assume a characteristic "frog eye" appearance: a purple margin with
a zone of dark brown surrounding the tan-to-gray center. Small, black pycnidia (pimplelike fruiting
bodies of the fungus) may appear in the centers.

30. Diseases In Different Crops (Fiber crops)
Infection on cotyledons, leaves and bracts rst appears as small, circular brown, grey-brown
to tan spots which vary in size from 1-10 mm. Mature spots have dry, dead, grey centres which
often crack and fall out. Older spots may coalesce producing irregular dead areas. Alternaria
leaf spot may be confused with those of bacterial blight which are angular in shape.

31. Diseases In Different Crops (Fiber crops)
Symptoms usually appear later in the growing season on outdoor plants. Powdery mildew
starts on young leaves as raised blister-like areas that cause leaves to curl, exposing the
lower leaf surface. Infected leaves become covered with a white to gray powdery growth,
usually on the upper surface; unopened ower buds may be white with mildew and may
never open. Leaves of severely infected plants turn brown and drop. The disease prefers
young, succulent growth; mature leaves are usually not affected

32. Diseases In Different Crops (Tubers)
First, oval or angular dark brown to black "target" spots appear on leaets. Usually a
narrow chlorotic zone is around the spot which fades into the normal green. Lowest,
oldest leaves are infected rst, and they droop and dry as the disease progresses.
If spots are numerous, they kill leaves and consequently may reduce yield. Tuber
infection is less frequent than leaf infection. Tuber lesions are sunken spots, brown to
black, from 0.12 inch to 0.37 inch in diameter, and normally circular. The margin between
diseased and healthy tubers is usually quite well dened. Underlying tissue shows a
brown, corky, dry rot more than 0.12 inch deep.

Downey Mildew- The rst sign of this disease is the pale distorted heart leaves in late
spring / early summer. On close inspection, a purplish grey fungus can be seen on the
underside of these leaves

Sugarcane sett treatment is followed by mixing 125 g of Carbendazim 50 WP
250 g of Carbendazim 25 DS in 250 litre of water along with 2.5 kg of Urea and
dipping the setts for 5 minutes

35. Methods Of Application
Foliar Spray
Mix little water to the recommended dose of BATISTA and make slurry.
Add remaining recommended quantity of water and spray uniformly with
proper coverage of the plants.
Stock solution: On basis of the water requirement for the spraying per
acre of eld, calculate the number of spray tanks needed. In a bucket,
take recommended amount of BATISTA
Note: The rst spray should be given as soon as the rst symptoms of
disease are noticed, or even a little earlier. If the disease continues,
give further sprays at intervals of 10-15 days.

36. Methods Of Application
Seedling Dip
Post-Harvest Treatment of Fruits
Prepare a suspension of BATISTA in water and dip the fruits for
half to one minute. Dry the fruits in shade. The fruits can be also
sprayed or drenched instead of dipping. Post-harvest treatment
of fruits is recommended against storage rots.
Seedling dip is recommended against some root diseases and soil
infections. Prepare a suspension by mixing the required amount of
BATISTA in suitable volume of water.
Dip the roots of seedlings for 10 - 30 minutes in this suspension shortly
before transplanting. Alternatively, slurry of BATISTA with mud can be
prepared and the roots of seedlings smeared.

37. Methods Of Application
Seed Dressing / Treatment
Mix the seeds with the required amount of BATISTA either dry or after
making a paste/slurry with small amount of water.
For treatment of Potato tubers and Sugarcane sets, prepare a suspension
of BATISTA in water and soak them for some time. Seed dressing is
recommended against seed-borne diseases in vegetables, oilseeds,
pulses, etc.
Soil Drench
Prepare a suspension of BATISTA in water and apply with watering-can
(rose-can)
Soil drench is an expensive treatment and is recommended only for
controlling soil-borne diseases in nurseries, ower beds, etc.

38. Methods Of Application
Seed Dressing / Treatment
Mix the seeds with the required amount of BATISTA either dry or after
making a paste/slurry with small amount of water.
For treatment of Potato tubers and Sugarcane sets, prepare a suspension
of BATISTA in water and soak them for some time. Seed dressing is
recommended against seed-borne diseases in vegetables, oilseeds,
pulses, etc.
