Abstract

Soybean (Glycine max (L) Merrill) and Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L) are an important and most profitable crop sequence of Madhya Pradesh. These crops Soybean and Gram suffer badly with charcoal rot/dry root rot caused by Rhizoctonia bataticola (Taub) Butler and Collar rot by Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc. Respectively. The ecological and economical problem of pests and pesticide in agriculture give rise to several ecofriendly innovative approaches. Inherent hazardous effects involved in conventional chemicals management coupled with the inclination of farmers towards organic farming. In present study six bio pesticides viz – Bio enhancer, Butter milk, Panchagvya, Beejamrite, Cow urine and Vermi wash and one chemical/fungicide Thiram + carbendazim (1:1) were used to manage the soybean charcoal rot and Gram collar rot diseases. All treatments significantly reduced the percent mortality in soybean and Gram caused by charcoal rot and collar rot respectively. The seed treatment with Thiram + Carbendazim (1:1) was found most effective against seedling mortality in Gram and Soybean due to collar rot due to S. rolfsii followed by Bio enhancer, Butter milk and Panchagvya respectively. However seed treatment with Panchagvya and Bio enhance (1:10) were found highly effective and superior over Thiram + Carbendazim (1:1) in controlling seeding mortality of soybean due to dry rot caused by Rhizoctonia bataticola.
