The efficacy of Nematoctonus robustus along with neem cake, FYM and Vermi compost was assessed either singly or in combination as soil application for management of rice root knot nematode, Meloidogyne graminicola in transplanted rice variety MTU-7029. Observation were recorded on rice plant growth parameter as shoot and root length, fresh weight, shoot and root weight, nematode root galls, eggs masses, females and juveniles. Application of Nematoctonus robustus 30g/kg soil and neem cake 15g/kg soil enhanced rice plant growth parameter such as shoot length (29.4 cm), root length (14.0 cm), fresh weight of shoot (2.267 mg) and fresh weight of root (0.448) even in the presence of the nematode. Fewest root gall (2.0), population of egg masses (348.7), population of females (3.6) and population of juveniles (1.7) of Meloidogyne graminicola were recorded in the application of Nematoctonus robustus 30g/kg soil + FYM 50g/kg soil and Nematoctonus robustus 30g/kg soil + Vermicompost 50g/kg soil.
