Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill), (2n=40) is a worldwide major oil seed crop. The soybean crop is affected with number of biotic and abiotic stresses. Among the biotic stresses, the important diseases like, rust, sclerotium wilt, fusarium wilt, bacterial blight and more than 50 various viruses are known to strike soybean. Out of 50 viral diseases, the yellow mosaic disease is the major viral disease of soybean. In present study, the roving survey was conducted in Western Maharashtra to measure the natural incidence of the yellow mosaic disease of soybean. Among the seven districts surveyed in Western Maharashtra for the incidence of soybean yellow mosaic disease in kharif season of 2018, the highest mean disease incidence was recorded in Sangli (27.87%)and lowest recorded in Solapur (17.66%) district. Hence, there is necessity for awareness and implementation of effective management practices for soybean yellow mosaic disease among the farming communities of the disease affected districts.
