An experiment was conducted with different combinations of botanicals and fungicides in nine treatments, one water spray and another absolute control treatment on susceptible genotype Akms 14B of Sorghum for reducing the grain mold. The observations were recorded on five randomly selected cobs from each treatment and replication viz., FGMR, per cent grain infected, per cent fungi associated at milk stage and 1000 seed weight. Lowest FGMR (7.50%) and per cent grain infection (14.60%) were observed in treatment Pyraclostrobin (0.1%) against water sprayed treatment i.e. 52.20% and 61.90%, respectively. The minimum association of seed borne fungi was recorded from same treatment i.e. Pyraclostrobin (0.1%) at milk stage. The fungi associated with sorghum seeds viz, Curvularia lunata, Fusarium moniliforme, Alternaria alternata, Phoma sorghina, Drechslera tetramera, F. semitectum, Cladosporium oxysporum and Bipolaris sorghicola showed positive significant association with FGMR and per cent grain infected. The highest 1000 seed weight (31.00 g) was found in treatment Pyraclostrobin (0.1%).
