Sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) is an important kharif crop grown in dry region of India. It is used for Anti-inflammatory properties, antimicrobial activity, digestive aid, antioxidant stress relief, and respiratory health. Basils are suffering from a number of diseases. Downy mildew and leaf blight of basil are wide spread and destructive disease in India. Use of synthetic fungicides has led to several problems like environmental pollution and residual effect. Hence the use of integrated disease management modules is environmentally safe, non pollutant, indigenously available and easily accessible for the management of diseases. Validation of integrated disease management modules for sweet basil was carried out at main experimental station, Department of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants, Acharya Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj, Ayodhya (U.P.) during the Kharif 2020-21-2022-23. The minimum disease incidence was observed in T4 – (Soil application of FYM @1.0 kg/m2 enriched with Trichoderma + Pseudomonas talc based formulation each @ 2.0% at planting time. On the onset of disease symptoms three spray of P. fluorescence @ 2.0% of talc based formulation and Neem oil @ 300 ppm) followed by T5- (Soil application of FYM @1.0 kg/m2 enriched with Trichoderma + Pseudomonas talc based formulation each @ 2.0% at planting time. On the onset of disease symptoms three spray of Tebuconazole + Trifloxystrobin @ 0.10% with 15 days interval), T3- (Soil application of FYM @1.0 kg/m2 enriched with Trichoderma + Pseudomonas talc based formulation each @ 2.0% at planting time. On the onset of disease symptoms three spray of Neem oil @ 300 ppm) and T6 (Soil application of FYM @1.0 kg/m2 enriched with Trichoderma + Pseudomonas talc based formulation each @ 2.0% at planting time. On the onset of disease symptoms three spray of Bordeaux mixture@ 5000 ppm at 15 days interval.
