Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn, the causal pathogen of sheath blight is second most damaging fungal disease in rice. While using chemical fungicides present high detriment to environment, the study investigate the efficacy of treatments composing five biofungicides in three different rates along with a biological agent, chemical check and untreated against the pathogen in in vitro level. In vitro efficacy showed that Melaleuca alternifolia + terpenes at 3.00 ml/L of H20 (T6), Aloe vera powder (Manopol) + Melaleuca oil at 3.00 ml/L of H20 (T15) and at 2.00 ml/L of H20 (T14) and Melaleuca alternifolia + terpenes at 2.00 ml/L of H20 (T5) as very effective (0-10 mm diameter zone of growth) treatments comparable to the chemical check (T17). Therefore, attaining high yield rice while having low risk to environment can always be done.
