Abstract

Three years pooled data indicated that bulb dip and drenching with captan 0.3% reduced disease incidence. The treatment was at par with bulb dip and soil application of T. viride. The bulb dip and drenching of captan 0.3% gave significantly highest yield of flower stalks (6.06 lakh/ha.) and salable bulbs (7.89 lakh/ha.) followed by bulb dip and soil application of T. viride which recorded 5.86 lakh flower stalks and 7.78 lakh bulbs per ha.
