Description: The study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of integrated management of stem canker and black scurf disease affecting the potato plant. The integrated management options were: T1 = Poultry manure (PM) + seed trématent (ST) with Azoxystrobin (0.05%), T2 = PM + STAzoxystrobin (0.10%), T3= PM+ST-Boric acid (3.0%), T4 = PM + ST-Carboxin (0.20%), T5 = PM + ST- Carbendazim (0.10%), T6 = PM + soil drenching (SD) - Azoxystrobin (0.05%), T7 = PM + SD-Azoxystrobin (0.10%), T8 = PM + SD-Carboxin (0.20%), T9 = PM + SD-Carbendazim (0.10%) and T10 = Untreated control. The integrated management significantly influenced the disease incidence, yield attributes and yield of potato. The lowest disease incidence (11.2%) and percentage of disease index (4.58) were found in T7 (poultry manure at 5 t ha-1 before 25 days of planting, DAP + soil drenching with Azoxystrobin at 0.10% during sowing and 45 DAP) followed by T6 (PM 5 t ha-1 + soil drenching with Azoxystrobin at 0.05%). The minimum weight of russet (480 g plot-1), deformed (450 g plot-1) and Sclerotia infected (150 g plot-1) tubers were also recorded in T7. The highest healthy tuber (1900.05 g plot-1) and tuber yield (22.4 t ha-1) were found in the same treatment. Therefore, poultry manure 5 t ha-1 before 25 DAP + soils drenching with Azoxystrobin at 0.10% during sowing and 45 DAP can be recommended to produce healthy tubers and maximum tuber yield of potato.
