Abstract

Groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) is an important oilseeds crop suffer from many diseases among them, early and late leaf spots are most widely distributed and economically important foliar diseases of groundnut causing severe damage to the crop. A field trial was carried out with eight fungicides to find out most effective fungicide for management leaf spot of groundnut. Minimum per cent disease index of early (30.76%) and late (59.38%) leaf spot recorded in foliar application of carbendazim 12% + mancozeb 63% WP (0.15%) followed by hexaconazole 5% SC (0.005%). Maximum pod (2302 kg ha-1) and haulm (6128 kg ha-1) yield was also recorded in plot treated with carbendazim 12% + mancozeb 63% WP (0.15%).
