Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is the third most important crop in India that suffers from various biotic and abiotic stresses. Among the biotic stresses early blight caused by Alternaria solani [(Ell. and Mart.) Jones and Grout] is one of the most destructive diseases of tomato which leads losses up to 78 per cent. In the present study efficacy of plant extract, bioagents, cow by product and fungicides were evaluated against the pathogen .Among plant extracts , Datura showed maximum growth inhibition of 61.11 per cent followed by Neem Seed Kernel Extract (15 % concentration) which showed growth inhibition of 55.55 per cent in vitro. In case of bioagents T. harzianum showed maximum growth inhibition of 76.53 per cent in vitro.
