Abstract


Eleven fungicides were evaluated as a soil drench in a field trial at three locations viz.." Dhamded, Butwada and Ganeshsisodra of Valsad district on highly susceptible variety CoC-671 in wilt-sick plot by drenching the fungicides first at planting and second 90 days after planting. Among the fungicides M.E.M.C. (Emisan-6 @ 0.2%), carbendazim (Bavistin @ 0.1 %), micronised sulphate (Micron-S-30.3 %) and Amurt-G (@ 62.5 kg/ha) proved quite effective upto 120 days of planting but at harvest, chlorothalanil 75 % (Kavach @ 0.15 %), Amrut-G (62.5 kg/ha) carbendazim (0.1%), Ovis-G (Ovis-G 20% w/w @ 25 kg/ha), M.E.M.C. (Bagalal-6 @ 0.2) and M.E.M.C. (Emisan-6 @ 0.2 %) gave higher yield over control. Thus, two drenching of either of carbendazim, M.E.M.C. (Emisan-6 @ 0.2 %), micronised sulphate, Amrut-G or Ovis-G seem to be quite effective in checking the will infection under field conditions.
