In early 1990s a disease, quick wilt affected the pepper plants, which was wide spreading and caused by a fungus called phytophthora. This entered into the plant through the cuts occurred on the roots while removing the soil for application of chemical fertilizers. The soil erosion was also severe in Idukki district mainly because the topsoil was washed off in rains. Due to tilling of land on the slopes used for pepper cultivation the top soil was washed out into the dams, reservoirs and rivers. This led to loss of fertility and adding more quantities of chemical fertilizers. The yield from pepper was going down sharply and the cost of cultivation was on a rise due to these factors.
