The experiments were conducted in the field of Jute Research Station (JRS), Kendrapara, Odisha during Kharif season of 2014 and 2015. Some new fungicide molecules were taken with eight (8) treatments for observing the effect on stem and root rot diseases of Olitorius jute. Lowest disease incidence of both stem rot (CODEX 10.83) and root rot (3.06%) was found in T7 (Seed treatment with Azoxystrobin + Difenconazole @ 1.0 ml/kg seed + spraying of Azoxystrobin + Difenconazole @0.075% at 40-45 days of crop age) with maximum fibre yield (26.77q/ha).
