The utilization of bio-control agents serves as an appropriate substitute to chemical approach. Hence, a study was executed to examine Trichoderma harzianum, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas fluorescens and Carbendazim for successful management of Fusarium wilt disease occurring in tomato, both in glasshouse and field conditions. Among various treatments, the seedling treatment with a combination of 0.2% Carbendazim and 2% T. harzianum not only recorded better biometrics of tomato (root-shoot length, yield, vigour index), also significantly reduced wilt incidence (13.3% in glasshouse, 22.27% in field) as compared to single application of bio-agents or Carbendazim or combinations of bacterial and fungal bio-agents. Therefore, use of bio-control agents alone or in integration with Carbendazim may be advised to the farmers as eco-friendly approach for profitable farming.
