Abstract:
Efficacy of different insecticidal treatments against pod borer complex were studied and the present investigation reported that the sequential application of treatments T₁-Flubemdiamide 48 SC, Chlorantraniliprole 18.5 SC appeared to be the best treatment showing maximum reduction (80.30%) in larval population of pod borer complex with JKM-189 genotype and also showed highest cost benefit ratio i.e., 1:14.48. The next best result was obtained in genotype BAU PP 16-38 with the spraying of T₃- Emamectin benzoate 5% SG giving 68.23% reduction in larval population of pod borer complex. Lowest result was obtained with spraying of T₂ - Bacillus thuringiensis var kurstaki 0.5% WP giving 49.84% reduction in larval population of pod borer complex over control. All the treatments were significantly superior over control.
