Abstract: Foliar application of fungicides was found to be highly effective against MLB and resulted in increased grain and fodder yield and reducing PDI. Two sprays of Propiconazole 25 EC @ 0.1% at 35 to 50 DAS found to be highly effective against MLB, followed by Tebuconazole 250 EC @ 0.1% and Difenconazole 25 EC @ 0.1%.
