Under experimental trial, seed treatment with Metiram + Pyraclostrobin @ 0.20% was found best than others treatments for seed and seedling diseases and Carbendazim + Mancozeb @ 0.30% very effective for wilt disease. Foliar application treatment trial Dinocap @ 0.15% was found best than others treatments for Powdery Mildew and Metiram + Pyraclostrobin @ 0.20% very effective for Downy mildew disease. Carbendazim + Mancozeb were found maximum yield (17.6 q/ha) and benefit cost ratio (2.97) in Pea crop (Pisum sativum L.). Top Keywords Fungicides, Pisum sativum, Seed germination, Vigour. Top |
