Nine botanicals and seven isolates of Trichoderma Spp. were evaluated by following poison food technique and dual culture technique against Rhizoctonia bataticola. Among the botanicals, maximum mycelium inhibition was recorded in Zingiber officinale rhizome (47.98 %) followed by Datura stramonium leaf (43.35 %), Allium sativum clove (39.74 %) and Eucalyptus Globus leaf (37.86 %). Out of the seven isolates of Trichoderma Spp. tested against Rhizoctonia bataticola, T-6 showed highest inhibition percentage (67.32 %) followed by T-7 (63.61%), T-3 (59.72 %) and T-5 (57.50 %).
