Field experiments conducted during 2016-2017 for the management of wilt of linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.), eleven varieties namely, Jeevan, Sweta, Parvati, Surbhi, NDL-2004-05, Kiran, RLC-92, Indira Alsi, Dipika, Shekhar including susceptible cultivar Chambal were sown in the month of October, 2016. Out of 11 varieties, the maximum initial plant population ( and plot) was noted with Shekhar followed by NDL-2004-05 respectively. Susceptible check Chambal has average initial plant population of after germination. The minimum percentage of wilting was recorded in cultivar RLC-92 ( per cent) followed by Jeevan ( per cent) and Indira Alsi ( Per cent), respectively but all were at par statistically. Maximum per cent of wilting was recorded in susceptible cultivar Chambal ( Per cent) followed by Sweta ( Per cent) and Shekhar ( per cent). Maximum seed yield of kg/ha was recorded in cultivar RLC-92 followed by Dipika () and NDL-2004-5 ( kg/ha), respectively, which was significantly higher over others. Linseed cultivar Chambal was sown in 7 different dates starting from 10 October, 2017 to 9 December, 2017 of 10 days intervals. Maximum wilting of plants ( Per cent) were noted in 1st date (10-10-2017) of sowing which decreased with delayed sowing and minimum ( Per cent) was recorded in December sown (09-12-2017) crop. Significant difference in wilting percentage was noted in crops sown on different dates. Maximum yield of was noted in crop sown on 19-11-2017 followed by crop sown on 09-11-2017 () and 30-10-2017 (), respectively. | Evaluation of suitable sowing dates and varieties for the management of linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) wilt under wilt-sick field conditionincited by fusarium oxysporum . lini.
