Investigation was carried out to study the efficacy of carbofuran (1 and 2 kg a.i/ha) with the varying levels of FYM 5,10 and 20%w/w in tomato infected with root-knot nematode under green house conditions. Results on number of root-knot galls indicated that carbofuran efficacy increased with the levels of FYM. Plant growth such as shoot wt. and shoot length improved in treatment while root wt. was decreased amongst treatments.
