An experiment on evaluation of fungicides, sea weed biomolecules and screening of fifty commercially available varieties/hybrids against early blight of tomato was conducted to study at ARS, Gunjevu during 2018-19. The result clearly indicates that the least disease severity of 14.33% was recorded in Hexaconazole5%EC @ 0.10% which showed significantly superior over other treatments. The next least disease severity of 15.74% was recorded in Trifloxystrobin 25 + Tebuconazole 50%WG @ 0.07% and which was at par with Hexaconazole 5% EC. While, Fluxapyraxad 250 + Pyraclostrobin 250SC @ 0.05% and Difenoconazole 25%EC @ 0.10% has recorded 21.70% and 23.18% disease severity respectively and were statistically at par with each other. Among the two sea weed bio molecules evaluated 39.26% severity was recorded in Sea weed bio molecule LBD12 followed by 43.26% in Sea weed bio molecule LBD1. Among the different treatment maximum fruit yield of 57.68 t/ha was noticed in Hexaconazole 5%EC @ 0.1% followed by 57.19 t/ha was recorded in Trifloxystrobin 25 + Tebuconazole 50%WG @ 0.07%. The least fruit yield of 41.06 t/ha was recorded in untreated plots. The similar trends were observed in field experiment of 2019-20 and the Hexaconazole 5%EC @ 0.1% has recorded least disease severity of 21.22% with highest yield of 58.40 t/ha. The economics of cost benefit ratio was worked for different fungicides evaluated and it was found that the highest cost benefit ratio was obtained by Hexaconazole 5% EC (2.03) followed by Trifloxystrobin 25 + Tebuconazole50%WG(1.88). Among the fifty commercial varieties/hybrids evaluated three varieties/ hybrids (Arka Surabh, Arka Samrat and Arka Vikas) showed moderately resistant (MR) reactions. The thirty four varieties/hybrids showed susceptible (S) reaction and the remaining thirteen varieties/hybrids recorded highly susceptible reaction (HS).
