Abstract:
The biological effectiveness of certain insecticides against whitefly was tested in a field experiment in 2014-15 at the College of Agriculture Indore, Madhya Pradesh. Among the treatments, emamectin benzoate 3.7% + diafenthiuron 46.3% WP @ 250 gm ha^-1 (0.48 whitefly/leaf) showed lowest whitefly population while it was highest in untreated control (4.88 whitefly/leaf). Highest green chilli yield was obtained from plot treated with emamectin benzoate 3.7% + diafenthiuron 46.3% WP @ 250 gm ha^-1 (171.11q ha^-1) followed by emamectin benzoate 3.7% + diafenthiuron 46.3% WP @ 200 gm ha^-1 (166.29 q ha^-1).
