ABSTRACT
The leaf blight of green gram incited by Macrophomina phaseolina was observed at Agronomy Farm, College of Agriculture, Dapoli. Among the different fungicides tested against the fungus, carbendazim (0.1%), propiconazole (0.05%) and mancozeb (0.25%) were very effective in inhibiting the growth of the pathogen. Goneem containing cow urine + neem extract was most effective at 0.3 per cent concentration among the bio- organics tested.
Key words :
Bio-organics, greengram, leaf blight, Macrophomina phaseolina, Vigna radiata.
