Cabbage (Brassica oleraceae var. Capitata L.) is contemplated as second most important vegetable belonging to the family brassicaceae. Alternaria leaf spot of cabbage is prevalent in all the cabbage growing states and is one of the major biotic problems, which limits the production of cabbage and quality of produce. The experiment for management practices on leaf spot of cabbage using botanicals was conducted during Rabi season. The minimum disease intensity was recorded in foliar sprays of Eucalyptus globulus @ 10% (30.40 %) followed by Azadirachta indica @ 15% (31.4 %), Lantana camara @ 15% (32.40 %), Ocimum sanctum @ 15% (34.8 %), Cyperus rotundus @15 % (37.4 %), as compared to treated (27.5 %) and untreated (43.8 %) checks. Maximum fresh head weight was recorded in Eucalyptus globulus (0.80 kg ) followed by Azadirachta indica (0.65 kg ), Lantana camara (0.64 kg ), Ocimum sanctum (0.56 kg ), Cyperus rotundus (0.52 kg ), as compared to treated (1.01 kg) and untreated (0.46 kg) checks. Maximum yield was recorded in Eucalyptus globulus (26.72 tonnes/ha) followed by Azadirachta indica (24.44 tonnes/ha), Lantana camara (22.88 tonnes/ha), Ocimum sanctum (21.27 tonnes/ha), Cyperus rotundus (17.77 tonnes/ha), as compared to treated (33.96 tonnes/ha) and untreated (14.71 tonnes/ha) checks.
