Details of Innovation	In case of root rot, the roots begin to decompose. The growth of the plant is stopped. The plants become dry. This disease occurs in mango (Mangifera indica) and other plants. When mango trees are hit by root rot (called "talkidi" in Gujarati), spread the oil cake of neem (Azadirachta indica) seed around the root. One tree needs one-kilo oil cake. The oil cake is spread only when the tree is affected by the disease. Within two to three days, the beneficial results of the treatment can be seen. There is no harmful effect. The oil cake cures root rot. This is an ancient method. This method is easy to use.
