Background: Cercospora leaf spot of mungbean [Vigna radiata (L.)] caused by Cercospora canescens. It has become a severe menace to the growers of Rajasthan in India and in general causes economic losses under changing climatic scenario. Depending upon the temperature and humidity, it spreads rapidly in susceptible varieties causing premature defoliation and reduction in size of pods and grains. In this study management was taken through botanicals and fungicides is also an important segment in the present era, in view of hazards caused by toxic chemicals or being developed resistance in pathogens to fungicides and effective means for disease control. Methods: In this field-laboratory investigation during kharif 2018 and kharif 2019 at Agronomy Farm, Sri Karan Narendra Agriculture University, Jobner, Jaipur, Rajasthan. The experiment was conducted for seven plant extracts at 5, 10 and 15 per cent concentrations were evaluated in vitro by poisoned food technique. In field experiments, further these fungicides applied as different concentrations viz., 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3% and plant extracts (at 10% conc.) were assessed by two foliar applications to control the disease. Result: Experiment was carried out in laboratory and field condition. In Plant extracts, the 100 per cent inhibition of mycelial growth was obtained with garlic extract at 10% concentration. In field conditions, two foliar applications of Hexaconazole (0.1%) were proved the most effective in reducing disease intensity (55.58%) and in increasing crop yield (56.50%) followed by Hexaconazole + Captan. In plant extracts, garlic extract (10%) proved superior in reducing disease intensity (52.85%) and in increasing crop yield (33.96%) followed by neem leaf extract.

dietary fiber, antioxidants, minerals and fall in alkaline fruit. Carrots contain minerals such as Calcium (39mg), Phosphorus (26 mg), Sodium (32 mg), Potash (102 mg), and Ferrous/Iron (1.4 mg) per 100g fresh weight. Carrots are rich in vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B6) and abundant of β-carotene, a dimmer of vitamin A. Along with traditional antioxidants like vitamin C, carrot contains poly-nutrient antioxidant (β-carotene), which protect human body from cancer of lungs, stomach, colon, cervix, uterus and oral cavity. Vitamin A in carrot prevents night blindness and also combact muscular degeneration. Eating more
