The field experiment was carried out at Central Research Field, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Naini, Prayagraj, U.P. during the Kharif season of 2021. Two rounds of selected chemicals and neem oil were sprayed against spotted pod borer. The data indicated that treatment T₆-Chlorantraniliprole 18.5SC was the most effective treatments in reducing M. vitrata larval population over control followed by T₂-Emamectin Benzoate 5SG, T₇-Spinosad 45SC, T₄-Novaluron 10% EC, T₁-Flubrndamide 20%SG, T₅-Indoxacarb 14.5 SC and T₃-Neem oil 2%. Among the treatment studied, the best and most economical treatment was Emamectin Benzoate 5SG (1:3.05) followed by Chlorantraniliprole 18.5SC (1:2.95), Spinosad 45SC (1:2.62), Flubendiamide 480 SC (1:2.57), Novaluron10%EC (1:2.49), Indoxacarb 14.5%SC (1:2.31) and Neem oil 2% (1:2.24), as compared to control plot (1:1.29).
