Abstract:
Field tests on the relative effectiveness of 10 different biocides against groundnut pest sucking insects were done. Neem seed kernel extract (NSKE) @ 5% and Vanguard 0.15% EC @ 0.0006% were shown to be very efficient against groundnut-infesting aphid, jassid, and thrips. While Gronim 0.30% EC @ 0.0006% was more effective against jassid and thrips on groundnut, Neemazal-T/S 1% @ 0.0006% was reported beneficial against aphid.
