3️⃣ Spray copper on trees ✅️

1️⃣ Spraying any insecticide at this stage is a waste of money as the insects are at the inactive stage now where chemical sprays hardly effect them.
2️⃣ Spray Urea only on fallen leaves, fruits, twigs, bark but not on trees as it might demage the buds now. Urea Spray speeds up the process of decomposition by enhancing nitrogen ratio. Decomposition is very useful process carried out by decomposers like fungi, bacteria and insects (earthworm, millipedes, centipedes, molluscs etc.) present naturally in soil. It helps in the recycling of nutrients, thus plays a key role in ecosystem sustainability.
3️⃣ Spraying copper at this stage is good as it is a good fungicide against Canker and other fungi. Copper spray keeps the trees neat, clean and healthy. Spray it after 11:00 AM when temperature is warm.
