Author(s): SK Meena, RV Deshmukh and VV Giri
Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during the year 2016-17 on farmer’s field of village Barad, Tq. Mudkhed, District-Nanded in randomized block design, replicated four times with five treatments of fungicides spray viz., T1-single spray of Dithane M-45 75 WP @0.25%, T2- single spray of Azoxystrobin 25 EC @0.06%, T3-Spraying of Dithane M-45 @0.25% alternated with spraying of Azoxystrobin @0.06% (C→S→C→S→C→S six sprays at 15 days interval), T4- Spraying of Dithane M- 45 @0.25% + Azoxystrobin @0.06% (C+S six sprays at 15 days interval), T5- Control. The spraying were started after six month after planting of the crop and were continued till flowering at 15 days interval. Significantly minimum percent disease severity index of sigatoka (16.67%) was recorded by the treatment T3 i.e. spraying of Dithane M-45 @0.25% alternated with spraying of Azoxystrobin @0.06% and significantly maximum banana yield (80.55Mt/ha) was recorded by the treatment T3 i.e. Spraying of Dithane M-45 @0.25% in alternation with the spraying of Azoxystrobin @0.06%. Total six sprayings were conducted at 15 days interval.
