Larvae gourd, Ridge and nymph of mite are greenish red while adults are oval gourd, Yard long reddish brown in colour. Mite feed on the under surface of bean & Lady’s leaves and the affected leaves gradually start curling and get finger wrinkled and crumpled. If infestation is found, spraying of Ethion @1.5-2 ml/liter of water is advised after current spells of rainfall.  For pointed gourd, cucumber, ridge gourd and bitter gourd periodic hand weeding should be followed. Hand pollination in pointed gourd, teasle gourd, sweet gourd early in the morning and during evening in ridge gourd helps to set cent percent fruit Mango Fruiting/Harvesting stage  Harvest the fruit on non rany days.  Fishery √ Maintain a good height of embankment around the pond. If possible provide net or bamboo chatai around the pond to protect from flowing out with flash flood.. √ As water has already started to accumulate in the ponds, farmers are advocated to go for stocking with fingerlings.

√ Contact nearby office of fishery in the upazila office for further advise. Livestock √ Prevailing condition are favorable for the incidences of different diseases. √ Vaccination & deworming may be done at regular interval. Prevailing climate may cause the for Hemorhagic Septicemia, Anthrox, Black Quarter Foot & Mouth diseases.
