Abstract

Long pepper (Piper longum L.) is an important medicinal plant used in Ayurvedic system of medicine since ancient time and diseases are an important biological constraint in limiting the production and productivity of it hence a field experiment was conducted to evaluate the foliar and soil borne diseases of Long pepper (cv. Vishwam) using several combinations of bioagents and organics. The result revealed that soil treatment with T. viride @3 g/m2 with 20t FYM/ha + Neem Cake @ 2t/ha was found superior in managing the leaf blight/rot disease where as spraying of Tebuconazole + Trifloxystrobin @ 0.1% was appeared to be the best in case of leaf spot and stem rot diseases. As far as dry catkin yield is concerned, soil treatment with T. viride @3 g/m2 with 20t FYM/ha + Neem Cake @ 2t/ha recorded highest yield of 445.4 Kg/ha.
