Citation: Argaye S and *Bekele B (2021). Demonstration of fungicides for management of faba bean gall (Olipidium viciae Kusano) disease in north shewa zone of Central Ethiopia. J. Agri. Res. Adv., 03 (03):17-22
Aim: The field experiment was conducted to demonstrate
effective fungicides to manage faba bean gall under natural infection.
Materials and Methods: Two fungicides viz; Noble 25 WP and Ridomil 80 WP
were demonstrated alongside control plots.
Results: The results revealed that use of Noble 25 WP and
Ridomil 80 WP reduces faba bean gall explained by reducing AUDPC and percentage
severity index (PSI) as well as higher yield. Noble 25 WP recorded the lowest
faba bean gall PSI (15%) and AUDPC (855%/days). The yield advantage of the
Noble 25 WP and Ridomil 80 WP compared to control was 58.04% and 18.43%
respectively. A marginal rate of return of 681.90% and 678.16% were obtained
from plots sprayed with Nobble 25WP and Ridomil 80 WP fungicides.
Conclusion: It was concluded that fungicides
will be used as a component in integrated management of this disease.
