Abstract: Six fungicides were evaluated at Raigarh (Chhattisgarh), for the control of powdery mildewdisease of coriander (Coriandrum sativum), caused by Erysiphe polygoni. All the fungicides re-duced the disease severity significantly, over control, with maximum reduction inhexaconazole (0.1%) that was on par with propiconazole (0.1%) and wettable sulfur (0.3%).Yield of coriander was higher 2.54, 2.00 and 2.20 times, over control, in hexaconazole (0.1%),propiconazole (0.1%) and wettable sulfur (0.3%), respectively. Cost-benefit ratio was 1:5.3,1:4.0 and 1:4.5 in hexaconazole (0.1%), propiconazole (0.1%) and wettable sulfur (0.3%),respectively.
