Journal Title: International Journal of Agriculture Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 48
Abstract
Efficacy of insecticides and bio pesticides named Chloropyriphos (Dursban 20 EC), Triazophos (Hattrick 40 EC), Lambda cyhalothrin (Warrior 2.5% EC), Imidacloprid (Confidor 17.8 SL), Spinosad (Tracer 45 SC), Neem oil (Neemarin 0.1%), Metarhizium anisopliae (Vallabh B. bassiana 2X109 CFU), Beauveria bassiana (Vallabh M. anisopliae 2X109 CFU) were tested against insect pest complex on okra. The result reported that efficacy of spinosad @ 100 ml/ha treatment against shoot and fruit borer as it recorded fruit infestation and Imidacloprid@ 300 ml/ha against sucking pests of okra was found to be most effective treatment against all insecticides and bio-pesticides treatments. Highest fruit yield was recorded in spinosad @ 100 ml/ha (73.07q/ha) as compared to control (42.08 q/ha), highest net profit per hectare was registered in spinosad @ 100 ml/ha (Rs. 26123.75) with highest cast benefit ratio was registered in Imidacloprid @ 300 ml/ha (1:8.94).
