Field experiments were conducted during kharif 1993-94, 1994-95 and 1995-96 to findout the effective fungicicde for the control of blast of rice. All the chemicals used were found to reduce leaf and neck blast incidence significantly when compared to untreated check. Seed treatment with Carbendazim + three sprays of tricyciazole @ 0.06% gave efficient control of leaf and neck blast which was on par with pyroquilon @ 0.1%.
