The use of beneficial fungi has been widely proven to impact growth and positively reduce pest and plant disease attacks. This study aimed to evaluate the application of three species of beneficial fungi to production, Fusarium wilt incidence, and Spodoptera exigua attack. The data were analyzed for variance and further tested using the Tukey test. The results showed an interaction between the three types of fungi with the spraying concentration at the lowest incidence of Fusarium wilt, namely Trichoderma asperellum treatment with a 14 g/L-1 (0.00%). Applying Beauveria bassiana gave the highest observed chlorophyll index (21.47) and the lowest attack percentage of Spodoptera exigua (3.17%). Applying Trichoderma asperellum, Beauveria bassiana, and Metarhizium anisopliae separately, at a concentration of 14 g L-1 gave the best effect on chlorophyll index (21.59), bulb diameter (32.17 mm), fresh bulb weight (15.21 g), dry bulb weight (14.71 g), and production per hectare (16.35 t). These results show that applying three fungi species can reduce pest and disease attacks, stimulate growth, and increase shallot production.
