Effect of cultural practices in the control of collar rot infection in coffee seedlings
The occurrence of collar rot in coffee was found to be increased by the incorporation of sand in the test soil (forest soil) and by mulching with rice-straw. Lime reduced the occurrence of the disease. When seedbeds were covered with polythene sheets, germination increased and the degree of infection reduced. Irrigation of seedbeds at different intervals did not significantly affect seed germination and mortality of coffee seedlings due to collar rot. However, plants which received water once in 24 h were slightly vigorous than those which received water once in 48 h. (ATA 10(8):52031. 1985)
