Abstract

In field trials in India with cv. Akp 27 of Eleusine coracana Hinosan [edifenphos], sprayed 5 times at 9-day intervals (twice at tillering, once at the boot-leaf stage and twice after ear emergence), at 1.125 l/ha, was best in reducing neck infection by Pyricularia [Ceratosphaeria] grisea, increasing yields up to 40% over the controls. Brestanol [triphenyl tin chloride] and Benlate [benomyl] increased yields up to 35 and 34% respectively.ADDITIONAL ABSTRACT:5 foliar sprays of 1125 l Hinosan [edifenphos], 0.5 kg Brestanol (triphenyl tin chloride) or 1.25 kg Benlate [benomyl]/ha applied to Eleusine coracana were effective against Pyricularia grisea and increased grain yields by 40, 35 and 34%, resp
