Ask before you spray
A wrong spray costs money, harms the soil and can leave residue on the food your own family eats. Show the problem to an expert first. The advice is free.

Photo guide
Take photos in daylight, hold the phone steady and make sure the problem is in focus. Do not use filters.
Stand back so the full plant, from soil to top, is in the photo.
Go close to the spots, holes, curling or rot so the detail is sharp.
Many pests and fungi hide under the leaf. Photograph the top and the underside.
One wide photo shows how much of the field is affected and how it is spreading.
If plants are wilting or yellowing, gently pull out one affected plant and photograph its roots.
Place it on your palm or a white paper and take a close photo.

The agronomist may ask one or two questions or one more photo before giving advice.
Advice follows the Shri Mantra Protocol: Root, Leaf, Soil and Water, so the soil heals while the crop is protected.
The advice is yours to use. If an input is needed, we tell you what it does and where to get it.
Send a new photo after a few days so the agronomist can check the treatment is working.
Many problems start in the soil. We may suggest a soil test so the next crop does not suffer the same way.
For serious or fast-spreading problems, your nearest Kendra can arrange a visit to your field.
Advice is based on the photos and details you share and is given in good faith. Always follow label directions and safety precautions for any input you apply.
