Abstract

Efficacy of diniconazole against Kama bunt (Neovossia indica) was evaluated under field conditions by spraying fungicidal suspension (@ 0.2% of the formulated product. The incidence was significantly reduced from 80.6 to 90.4% by the fungicide. The residues of diniconazole were below detectable limit in wheat grains and straw at harvest.
