ABSTRACT
To monitor collar rot disease of groundnut, roving survey was carried out in the groundnut growing areas of two major districts of Rayalaseema region viz. Anantapur and Chittoor during Kharif season in 2013. To assess incidence of collar rot disease, six representative mandals in each district were selected. Clear disease symptoms were noted in the fields during the season. In Anantapur district, the disease incidence was in the range of 13.33 % (Reddipalli) to 39.17 % (Thimmanacherla) whereas in chittoor district, it was in the range of 14.17 % (Ramapuram) to 38.33 % (Rangampeta).
