Abstract: Bacteria cause significant impacts on bananas globally and management practices are not always well known or adopted by farmers. Overall, the adoption of management practices at the farm and landscape level is considered as the most critical factor to manage bacterial disease causing tip over disease of banana after pathogen incursions are confirmed in a given production area. Hence the success of control strategies, however, strongly relies on the use of agro chemicals/ antibiotics. The in vitro studies conducted reveals that among the different agrochemicals, 2-Bromo-2 nitropropane-1, 3-diol (8.33, 8.67, 10.33, 15.67mm) showed highest inhibition at 200, 300, 400 and 500 ppm followed by cristocycline (3.33, 5.33, 7.00, 14.33mm). Among the other agrochemicals of concentrations, copper hydroxide (3.67, 4.00, 7.67, 12.67mm) and copper oxy chloride (3.00, 3.33, 6.33, 10.33mm) recorded highest inhibition at 1000, 1500, 2000 and 2500 ppm.
