Dear Rd Singh I agree with Durga Prasad . It is bacterial blight. Spray 0.5 gms Streptocycline and 3 gms copper oxy chloride in one litre of water if the disease is severe. About 200 litres of solution may be required per acre

DearShankara Goud M I am not agree to your solution. Because copper oxy chloride is dengerous for grains. It will black the grains.

Salman Malik Copper oxychloride is a fungicide and can be safely used if used in desired quantity.

Dear Salman Malik Copper oxy chloride is the safest fungicide to be used on food grains at the harvesting stage . Don't go by the colour of the solution. It does not darken the grains. Mr Durga Prasad is right in this respect
