Taqat 75 WP is a new combination product of captan 70 per cent (contact) and hexaconazole 5 per cent (Systemic) proved effective against fungal diseases of blackgram i.e. rust and powdery mildew diseases. Hence, in the present study, taqat 75 WP was evaluated in comparision to other commonly used fungicides against foliar disease of blackgram. A field experiment was conducted at farmers field of Gariyaband district of Chhattisgarh state during Kharif 2013 and 2014 to evaluate the efficacy of taqat 75 WP against foliar fungal disease of blackgram. The results revealed that taqat 75 WP @ 750 g ha-1 was highly effective in controlling the incidence of rust and powdery mildew in blackgram. Results also revealed that taqat 75 WP @ 750 g ha-1 increased the seed yield and yield attributing characteristics like number of pods plant-1, number of seeds pod-1 and 1000 seed weight.
