Late blight is the name of the potato disease that has devastated crops in several districts of Punjab. It manifests as green circles on potatoes that enlarge into lesions that are dark brown in color. The late blight fungal infestation has affected more than half of the state's potato crop. Too much moisture and humidity aided in its growth, which caused the tuber to rot.
