Abstract
Maydis leaf blight (MLB), caused by Drechslera maydis, is a disease that significantly affects maize productivity and also deteriorates the value and quality of the grains across the globe. It may cause up to 40% grain yield loss under favourable conditions. The present study was undertaken to work out the efficacy of Saaf 75WP (carbendazim 12%+ mancozeb 63% WP) for the management of MLB under field condition for two seasons Kharif 2015 and 2016. Saaf 75WP was evaluated at three doses (875, 1000, 1125 g ha-1) and compared with standard fungicides (mancozeb 75WP, Carbendazim 50WP, zineb 75WP). Among all the fungicides, Saaf 75WP (carbendazim 12%+ mancozeb 63% WP) at 1000 g ha-1 and 1125 g ha-1 was found highly effective. In the plots sprayed with Saaf 75WP @1000 g/ha or 1125g/ha, the grain yield was recorded to be at par which was significantly more than mancozeb 75WP and zineb 75WP.
