ABSTRACT:  Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) has highnutritive value so it cultivated all over the world.  Tomato production is affected by plant parasiticroot knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita Race II which are responsible largeamount of yield losses. A survey was conducted over period of year 2017- 2018to estimate the occurrence of root knot nematode disease on tomato crops infive selected areas in around Solapur region. Survey reports that roots oftomato crops heavily infested with Meloidogyne incognita Race II. Region wisevariation in the incidence of disease were found.  Highest frequency 90% Wadala area, 70%Nannaj, 60% Ranmasale and Mandrup and  50% Dudhani. Intensity gall index and EMI index  5/5 in Wadala,4/4in Mandrup, Dudhani, Ranmaslae and  3/3in Nannaj.
