Abstract

Studies were conducted to manage the root rot disease of cowpea through seed treatment with different seed dressers during kharif 2009–10, 2010–11 and 2011–12. The minimum root rot disease incidence was recorded in the seed treatment with Cosco @3gm/kg (11.3%) followed by Thiram @ 2gm/kg (12.9%) and Captan @ 2gm/kg (13.4%). The yield data revealed that the highest grain yield was recorded in seed treatment with Cosco @ 3gm/kg (718 kg/ha) followed by Vitavax @ 2gm/kg (700 kg/ha), Thiram @ 2gm/kg (698 kg/ha) and Captan @ 2gm/kg (675 kg/ha).
