Abstract
Wilt of pigeonpea caused by Fusarium udum Butler is an important disease and responsible for lethal damage to crop. Management of wilt by use of fungicides in soil is difficult and economically non-viable. Incorporation of organic amendments to soil is well known practice for management of wilt. Efficacy of eight different organic amendments alone and in combination with biocontrol agent, Trichoderma was tried. Significantly highest inhibition in the growth of F. udum was observed in sesamum cake followed by neem cake. Sesamum cake amended with Trichoderma was also proved to be superior with least wilt incidence.
