Title: Evaluation of fungicides against fungal diseases in rice under filed conditions of Kashmir
Abstract: Field trials conducted under irrigated conditions during wet season of 2003 and 2004 in Kashmir to get an effective for fungicides in the control of leaf blast, neck blast and sheath blight revealed that four spays of Hexaconazole 5 EC, Carbendazim + Mancozeb 75WP, Carbendazim 50 WP were found most effective in controlling the above pests respectively and increased grain yield. Highest control of neck blast (56.9%) and suppression of glume discolouration (47.1%) was observed when Carbendazim + Mancozeb 75WP @ 0.563 kg a.i. ha-1 was applied. However, maximum leaf blast control (49.6%) was recorded in Hexaconazole 5EC treated plots while Carbendazim 50 WP reduced the sheath blight severity (42.4%) to a maximum extent.
