Abstract

India faces a serious threat from several insect pests and diseases in the area of grape cultivation. Grape cultivation throughout India is currently facing several major threats, including fungal pests and diseases such as downy mildew, powdery mildew, anthracnose, and mealybug. This disruption to the grape industry inevitably leads to economic losses for both farmers and the countrywide economy. By using appropriate pesticides at the right time and in dosages, farmers can minimize these negative effects while still preserving crops even in the presence of harmful chemicals. Additionally, neglecting grape leaf diseases can lead to significant damage to plants.

Powdery mildew and downy mildew are two prime examples of plant diseases that can take a heavy toll on crop yields. Integrated technology into viticulture and horticulture is critical for improving grape production and preventing future economic turmoil. A disease of the grape leaves like downy mildew, or powdery mildew can cause great losses to the farmers. In the leaves, fruits, and on stems of plants, we can identify diseases. Detecting the diseases of the leaves in their early stages is a challenging task and is a must for higher yield. Current researches trends are on the chemical composition of pesticides, in turn, are harmful to human health.
