  • Farmers are advised to sow the recommended varieties crop as present climatic conditions in respect of temperature favours ideal germination of wheat seed.
    • 
	
  • Prepare land at optimum“Zoe” (appropriate moisture level) condition.
    • 
	
  • Before final land preparation apply cowdung/compost @ 10 tons/ha. Also apply fertilizers like Urea, TSP, MOP, Gypsum and Boric acid @ 150, 135, 100, 110, 6.0 kg per hectare, respectively as basal dose.

    • 




Vegetable



    
	
  • Eggplant may be attacked by tip and fruit borer under prevailing weather conditions. For control, cut and destroy the affected tip along with the insects. Insect reproduction is likely to be greatly reduced by using pheromone traps. Use spray of approval dose of insecticides, if necessary or recommended local organic insecticides may be used.
    • 
	
  • Powdery mildew disease can occur in cucumbers. For control, apply pesticides of the hexaconazole or mancozeb group.

  • Guava may be attacked by caterpillars under the prevailing condition. For control, spray 05 grams of soap powder per liter of water.
    • 
	
  • Coconut trees may be attacked by spiders under prevailing weather condition., all the young caconut of the affected tree should be cut down and burnt. Infected trees and nearby young trees should be sprayed with any spider repellent such as Omite 57 EC mixed in 1.5 ml of one liter of water.
    • 
	
  • Apply Irrigation.
    • 




Mustard



    
	
  • Stage:Flowering
    • 
	
  • Apply 125-150 kg Urea per hectare before flowering.

Insect reproduction is likely to be greatly reduced by using pheromone traps. Use spray of approval dose of insecticides, if necessary or recommended local organic insecticides may be used.
    • 
	
  • Powdery mildew disease can occur in cucumbers. For control, apply pesticides of the hexaconazole or mancozeb group.
    • 
	
  • Under the prevailing weather condition, there is a chance of aphid attack in beans and cabbage. Use the approved dose of Chloropyrix group of pesticides.
    • 
	
  • Apply Irrigation.

Horticultural



    
	
  • Farmers are advised to go for bagging of the banana bunches with muslin cloth or polyethylene before fruit set in order to protect the fruits from the attack of banana fruit and leaf scarring beetle.
    • 
	
  • Guava may be attacked by caterpillars under the prevailing condition. For control, spray 05 grams of soap powder per liter of water.
    • 
	
  • Coconut trees may be attacked by spiders under prevailing weather condition., all the young caconut of the affected tree should be cut down and burnt. Infected trees and nearby young trees should be sprayed with any spider repellent such as Omite 57 EC mixed in 1.5 ml of one liter of water.
    • 
	
  • Apply Irrigation.
    • 




Livestock



    
	
  • Give anthelmintic drugs.
    • 
	
  • Give Vaccination based on age and physical condition of cattle.
    • 
	
  • Keep sheds and floors clean.

    • 




Fishery



    
	
  • Reduce food in winter. Stop feeding if needed.
    • 
	
  • Drain the pond and remove the black/rotten mud from the bottom.
    • 
	
  • Repair the pond’s bank if damaged.
    • 
	
  • Contact the nearest upazila fisheries office if any fish disease occurs or if the desired growth is not achieved.
    • 
	
  • Start preparing the pond for the next year by harvesting all the fish if it is an annual pond.
    • 
	
  • Application of 250 grams of lime per decimal at the beginning of winter helps to get rid of fish diseases.
    • 




Potato



    
	
  • Stage:Tuber set/ initiation
    • 
	
  • Farmers are advised to irrigate the land for keeping optimum moisture in the field during this stage for quality tuber formation and development.
    • 
	
  • Present weather condition is congenial for Potato wireworm infestation. Use Pheromone trap and earthingup before 60 days of potato harvesting
