Bio-control agent (Trichoderma viride) was used as seed (5g/kg seed) and soil treatments @ 5kg/ha, while untreated seeds were considered as control. Observations on disease incidence, and yield of Lentil were recorded. Seed treatment with Carbendazim 50WP and soil application of Trichoderma viride @ 5.0 kg/ha showed significant reduction in disease incidence as compared to untreated control with maximum grain yield.
