Hi Aakash Garg. If its initial stage - it can be. If it reaches out of control - its difficult. Lets try.

Hi Aakash Garg. As you know "precaution is better than cure". So, daily and regular field visit with watch and ward with precautionary measures only help to avoid the disease in earlier stage.

Hi Aakash Garg . Everyone knows Papaya is very sensitive crop. 1. Planting wind breaks along with papaya around the field, which helps in avoiding entry of vectors into the field. 2. Daily observations of plants for any attack of any pest and diseases. 3. If you found any symptoms - immediately go for respective spray, to avoid further spread...and so on so forth... Such precautionary measures are more important, if I am right.
