1. Introduction:
1.1 Background
• Chili is a member of the Solanaceae family which includes
crops such as Potato, Tomato, Black Nightshade and Egg
Plant among others
• Chili is a plant of tropical and subtropical regions grown
for their fleshy fruits
• Fruits are consumed fresh, dried or in processed form as
a table vegetable or spice
• Chili produces pungent chemical called capsaicin
• Scoville scale is used to measure pungency with sweet
peppers being mild & Cayenne scorching
• Fruits are a rich source of Vitamin A & C, B6. Also high in
K, Mg, and Fe (AVRDC).

MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.1 Raising Seedlings
(GHCP&PHHT20: Q9)
• Chili can be established through the nursery
• The seed rate is about 75 g/acre
Nursery Site Selection:
• The nursery should be sited in a plot that has not
been planted with a member of Solanaceae
family for the last 3 years
• Choose a site with rich, well drained, friable
soil
• Choose an area near a water source and
protected from animals
10
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.1 Raising Seedlings Cont’
Nursery Establishment:
• Nursery bed: 1 m width by any desired length
• Till until soil is fine
• Mix soil with 10 – 15 kg of potent manure per
square meter
• Sow the seeds 1.5 cm deep in holes at a
spacing of 15 – 20 cm apart
• Cover the bed with mulch and water thoroughly
11
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.1 Raising Seedlings Cont’
Nursery Establishment Cont’:
• Use of seedling trays is recommended,
especially for expensive hybrid seeds
• Seedling trays offer more uniform germination
and growth
Management of Nursery:
• Water once a day
• Where possible, check soil moisture before
watering
12
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.1 Raising Seedlings Cont’
Management of Nursery Cont’:
• As soon as seeds start germinating, remove
mulch and create a temporary shade above
the seedbed (about 50 %), using shade net or
grass mulch
• Monitor for disease and pests regularly and
react accordingly
• Germination is complete after 1 to 3 weeks
• Seedlings should be hardened off in the 4th
and 5th week after emergence by reducing
shade and watering frequency to 3 times per
week 13
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.2 Transplanting
3.2.1 Appropriate Time:
• Seedlings are ready for transplanting 5 – 6 weeks
after emergence (4 – 6 leaf stage)
• Transplanting done at the beginning of the rainy
season to give seedlings a good start
• Water nursery beds before lifting the seedlings with a
ball of soil around their roots
• Plant seedlings when temperatures are low
3.2.2 Recommended Spacing
(GHCP&PHHT20: Q10):
• Spacing: 60 X 40 cm or 70 X 30 cm are
recommended depending on variety
• Plant population: 16,666-19,000 14
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.5 Transplanting Cont’
3.2.3 Fertilizer Application Rates
(GHCP&PHHT20: Q11):
• A basic dressing of 100 kg per acre of TSP or
DAP depending on soil analysis results
• Well decomposed manure should be
incorporated at a rate of 10 tones per acre
• Both fertilizer and manure should be well
incorporated in the soil before transplanting
15
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.4 Water Requirement
(GHCP&PHHT20: Q12)
• Plants should be provided with adequate water
which is well distributed. Crop irrigation should
be considered in areas experiencing rainfall
below 600mm/year
• During fruit development, water stress will lead
to fruit and flower abortion
16
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.5 Top-dressing
(GHCP&PHHT20: Q14)
• Top-dressing can be done first when plants are about 15
cm, then 4 weeks later for the second time
• 1st top-dressing:
• In acidic Soils: 40 kg per acre of CAN
• In alkaline Soils: 50 kg per acre of SA (Sulphate of
Ammonia)
• Foliar feeds high in magnesium are desirable on alkaline
soils
• 2nd top-dressing: 80 kg per acre of CAN or SA
Note: Type of fertilizer and application rate will depend on
results of soil analysis

MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.6.1.A: False Codling Moth
Identification:
• The adult is nocturnal and attracted to light
• When full grown, the larva descends to the
ground on a silken thread and spins a tough
silken cocoon in the soil or amongst debris.
Symptoms:
• On fruits, the young larvae mines just beneath
the surface, or bores into the pith causing
premature ripening of the fruits
20
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.6.1.A: False Codling Moth
Control:
3-13
• Use of Pheromone Trap
• Sanitation, crop rotation
with non-host crops such as
beans, carrots
• Destruction of wild and
cultivated hosts
• Control of weeds
Note: use of trap crops e.g.
sorghum has shown promise
as a trap crop against the

MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.6.1.B: Aphid
Identification:
• Aphids are soft-bodied insects that cluster in
shaded areas on the leaves, stems and
blossoms
• Winged aphids move from field to field
spreading viral diseases
Symptoms:
• Sticky honey dew
• Feeding injury in the form of curling leaf
margins, yellow spots & leaf distortion
23
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.6.1.B: Aphid Cont’
Symptoms Cont’:
• Leaf drop if infestation is severe
• Low production and sun scald of fruit
• Stained fruits with Aphid excreta
Control:
• Introduce natural enemies, such as Ladybird Beetle, parasitic
wasps such as Aphidius transcaspinus (“APHITECH”)
• Spray with insecticides, such as Acetamiprid (PRESENTO
200 SP®), Thiacloprid 480 g/L (CALYPSO SC 480®)

3.6.1.C: Cutworm
Identification:
• Many species of cutworm exist
• They are grey, brown or black soft-bodied,
smooth larva of a large family of moths
• They curl-up tightly when disturbed
• They feed at night
Symptoms:
• Cutting of the stems at the base
26
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
3.6.1.C: Cutworm
Control:
• Remove by hands since the pest is easily found
near the damaged plant, especially at the
beginning of infestation
• Manage Weeds: early weeding destroys sites
for egg laying
• Plough the field: ploughing exposes the pest to
its predators and desiccation

• Mites rapidly develop resistance to pesticides.
To avoid development of resistance, farmers
need to:
- Use miticides such as Amitraz (Mitac 20EC®)
- Avoid preventive spraying
- Use the recommended dosage

Cont’
Control:
• Use only certified, disease-free seed or
transplants (seedlings)
• Produce Chili plants on raised beds to retard
initial stem infection
• Practice crop rotation, so that Chilies are
grown only every 3 to 4 years
• Application of fungicides e.g.) Copper
Oxychloride 50% metallic copper (COBOX 50
WP®, AMICOP 50WP®) may reduce disease
development 60
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
4. Harvest
4.1 Harvesting Indices (GHCP&PHHT20: Q17)
• Harvesting time is usually determined by the fruit
colour required by the market
• Maturity Period: First harvest starts 2.5 – 3
months after transplanting and continues for a
further 4 – 6 months
Harvesting:
• Mature fruits are handpicked and placed in a shade
to prevent shriveling
• Fruits should be handled with care to avoid
bruising
• Yields: 4,000 – 6,000kg per acre
61
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
5. Post-Harvest Handling
Storage:
- Chili is pre-cooled to 7 – 10 ºC
- Chili can be stored for 3 weeks at
temperatures of 7 – 10 ºC and Relative
Humidity of 90 – 95 %

Cont’
Drying:
- Chilies should NOT be picked until it starts
going red
- Done in open air in raised racks and spread on
well-aerated polysacks for up to 3 to 4 days
during the hot days or by use of special enclosed
solar cabinet dryers to ensure fast and absolute
hygiene
- The moisture contents of Chili when stored
should be 10 – 15% to prevent mold growth
64
MOALF/SHEP PLUS
5. Post-Harvest Handling
Cont’
Drying Cont’: 5-5
- With lower moisture
content (< 10 %), pods
may be so brittle that they
shatter during handling.
This causes losses and
the release of dust, which
is irritating to the skin and
respiratory system Dried ABE
- A Relative Humidity of 60 Chilies
– 70 % is desirable
