Journal Title: International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences (IJCMAS) - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 12
Abstract
Experiment was carried out in the field at the Faculty of Agriculture, Wadura, North Kashmir during 2015-16 under free choice conditions to evaluate the efficacy of Green leaf extracts against Mythimna separate on oats crop. The results revealed that dichlorvos showed significant results in increase in pest mortality 48.15, 59.11, 69.23 and 46.16 per cent after 1, 3, 5 and 7 days after treatment (DAT), respectively with 89.34 per cent increase in the mortality over control. This was followed by NSKE 39.90, 49.18, 59.02 and 38.53 per cent after 1, 3, 5 and 7 DAS, respectively with 87.28 per cent increase in the mortality over control. Among the botanicals NSKE was found to be most effective followed by Artemisia annua however, it was found least in case of green leaf extract of walnut.
