Blast caused by Magnaporthe grisea has emerged as a major threat in recent years to forage pearl millet in India. Due to lack of resistant cultivars to blast disease, the disease can be best managed through fungicides. However, no comprehensive multi-location study in managing blast disease in forage pearl millet has been conducted in India. Therefore, field trials for two consecutive years (2019 and 2020) were conducted at four geographically different locations (Ludhiana, Palampur, Jhansi and Bhubaneswar) of India. Carbendazim, tebuconazole + trifloxystrobin, tricyclazole, chitosan and neem oil were tested for their efficacy through seed treatment alone or seed treatment followed by two foliar sprays at 15 days interval. Results showed the superiority of tebuconazole + trifloxystrobin as seed treatment followed by two foliar sprays in reducing the blast disease area under disease progress as well as rate of infection at Ludhiana, Jhansi and Palampur. Tricyclazole as seed treatment followed by two foliar sprays was found superior over others in reducing the area under disease progress curve as well as rate of infection at Bhubaneswar. Reduction in blast disease area under disease progress curve and rate of infection by applying these treatments helped in achieving a significant increase in the green fodder yield at the tested locations. Through this study, an effective strategy for location specific management of blast disease of forage pearl millet has been formulated.

由Magnaporthe grisea引起的爆炸近年来，已成为在印度觅食珍珠粟的主要威胁。由于缺乏对稻瘟病具有抗性的品种，该病最好通过杀菌剂进行控制。然而，印度尚未开展全面的多地点研究来管理饲料珍珠粟中的稻瘟病。因此，连续两年（2019 年和 2020 年）在印度的四个不同地理位置（卢迪亚纳、帕拉姆普尔、占西和布巴内斯瓦尔）进行了现场试验。多菌灵、戊唑醇 + 嘧菌酯、三环唑、壳聚糖和印楝油通过单独的种子处理或种子处理，然后每隔 15 天进行两次叶面喷雾测试其功效。结果表明，戊唑醇 + 嘧菌酯作为种子处理后两次叶面喷雾在减少疾病进展期间的稻瘟病面积以及 Ludhiana、Jhansi 和 Palampur 的感染率方面具有优势。发现三环唑作为种子处理后两次叶面喷雾在减少疾病进展曲线下的面积以及布巴内斯瓦尔的感染率方面优于其他方法。通过应用这些处理减少疾病进展曲线和感染率下的稻瘟病面积有助于在测试地点实现绿色饲料产量的显着增加。通过本研究，制定了针对牧草小米稻瘟病的定位特定管理的有效策略。发现三环唑作为种子处理后两次叶面喷雾在减少疾病进展曲线下的面积以及布巴内斯瓦尔的感染率方面优于其他方法。通过应用这些处理减少疾病进展曲线和感染率下的稻瘟病面积有助于在测试地点实现绿色饲料产量的显着增加。通过本研究，制定了针对牧草小米稻瘟病的定位特定管理的有效策略。发现三环唑作为种子处理后两次叶面喷雾在减少疾病进展曲线下的面积以及布巴内斯瓦尔的感染率方面优于其他方法。通过应用这些处理减少疾病进展曲线和感染率下的稻瘟病面积有助于在测试地点实现绿色饲料产量的显着增加。通过本研究，制定了针对牧草小米稻瘟病的定位特定管理的有效策略。通过应用这些处理减少疾病进展曲线和感染率下的稻瘟病面积有助于在测试地点实现绿色饲料产量的显着增加。通过本研究，制定了针对牧草小米稻瘟病的定位特定管理的有效策略。通过应用这些处理减少疾病进展曲线和感染率下的稻瘟病面积有助于在测试地点实现绿色饲料产量的显着增加。通过本研究，制定了针对牧草小米稻瘟病的定位特定管理的有效策略。
