Brinjal and tomato, both of these Solanaceous crops, suffer from different diseases based on their surrounding environment. In charland ecosystem, due to the current trend of climate change these two crops have become vulnerable to disease infection. A comprehensive survey was conducted in Jamalpur and Sherpur districts to measure the severity of major diseases of brinjal and tomato in this region during the rabi season of 2018-19. This survey was based on farmers’ fields targeting 10 different locations where brinjal and tomato were grown extensively. Data were collected from randomly selected farmer’s vegetable fields where incidence and severity were recorded. Through the survey, five (5) diseases based on their incidence and severity were categorized as major diseases in studied areas. Bacterial wilt of brinjal (60%) and viral disease of tomato (41.67%) were found to be higher in incidence. This was a major limiting factor for decreasing total brinjal and tomato production in the charland of Jamalpur and Sherpur. Wilting of tomato (20%), viral disease of brinjal (20%) and phomopsis blight of brinjal (13.33%) were medium in incidence at different locations. Farmers of these areas found these diseases to be a serious threat to future cultivation and expansion of brinjal and tomato in charland.
