Sclerotium rolfsii is a soil inhabitant, non-target, polyphagous, and a ubiquitous facultative parasite. Its geographic distribution, profuse mycelial growth, persistent sclerotia and large number of hosts attacked by it indicate that, economic losses are substantial every year due to infection. The present study was carried out to understand about the in vitro efficacy of some agrochemicals (Fungicides- difenconazole, propiconazole and hexaconazole, Herbicides - paraquat, glyphosate and pendimethalin and Insecticides - imidachloprid, fipronil and chlorpyriphos) with three different concentrations for each chemical on radial growth of the fungus. It is observed that among the fungicides hexaconazole had showed 100percent inhibition at 12.5ppm, herbicide pendimethalin (0.4%) and insecticide chlorpyriphos (0.125%) respectively.
