The study entitled "Comparative Effectiveness of Five Fungicides Against Leaf Spot of Peanut" was conducted to determine the most effective fungicide control for leaf spot disease of peanuts. It was conducted in Limbon, Indang, Cavite from June 4, 1978 to September 10, 1978. Fungicides used were Cupravit, Captafol 80W, Benlate, Shell Copper and Maneb. Of the five fungicides tested against leaf spot of peanut, Benlate was observed to be the most effective because it partially reduced the spot and due to that lessening of spot, it gave the highest mean weight and highest computed yield per hectare (kgms.) Cupravit, Captafol 80W and Shell Copper could lessen the spot infection although not neces-sarily increase the yield. Maneb could somewhat inhibit spot infection but Phytotoxic effects were observed. Spraying was done three times. First application was done on July 8, 1978. The second application was on July 29, 1978 and the last application was on August 13, 1978 at two weeks interval, with the rate of; for Cupravit, three tablespoons per gallon of water, Captafol 80W, 24 tablespoons per gallon of water, Benlate, two tablespoons per gallon of water, Shell Copper and Maneb, 2K tablespoons per gallon of water. General visual observation was done one week after spraying
