Hairy caterpillar (Diacrisia obliqua)

Control:-Spraying with Endrex 20 EC @ 2 ml/litre of water

Field cricket (Brachytry'pes achatinus)

Control:-The pest is controlled by dusting with Aldrin 5% @ 20 kg hectare at the time of seedbed preparation

Root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne sp)Mealy baug (Ferrisia vigata)Control:-

Stem gallcaused by:- Physoderma corchori

1)avoiding submerged conditions by arranging proper drainage system and 2) by growing resistant varieties e,g. Capsularies types.

Soft rot

Caused by:- Corticum rolfsii

Control:-spraying the plants with Bordeaux mixture

17

Stem rot Disease

caused by a fungus, Collecotrichum cochorum

Control:- Captan at the rate 5 g/kg seed and spraying

Leaf Sport Disease

It is a bacterial disease caused by Xanthomonas sp

Control:- by crop rotation resistant jute varieties

Harvesting

Yield

The green matter harvested from one hectare may amount to 40 tonnes

Yield of jute fibre per hectare is between 1000 to 1500 kg
