Attempts were made to manage charcoal rot disease of soybean (Glycine max L.) caused by Macrophomina phaseolina by applying organic amendments. Out of the 11 amendments tested, Neem seed cake @50g/kg soil was found most effective with significantly highest seed germination (85.00%); with least pre-emergence (20.00%), post- emergence (15.55%) and average (17.77%) mortality of the host plant. There was significantly highest reduction in pre-emergence (72.11%), post-emergence (78.78%) and average (75.44%) mortality respectively.
