Abstract:
The studies on impact of acaricides on the yield and quality of apple infested by European Red Mite Panonychus ulmi (Koch) in North Kashmir were carried out during 2017 at Pattan (Baramulla).Seven acaricides and one horticulture mineral oil were evaluated at a single concentration viz., fenazaquin 10 EC @ 0.004, Propargite 57 EC @ 0.057, hexythiazox 5 EC @ 0.002, spiromesifen 240 EC @ 0.096, fenpyroximate 5 EC @ 0.005, ethion 50 EC @ 0.05, clothianidin 50 WDG @ 0.007, arbofine extra @ 0.75 and water as check against the pest infesting on apple trees during second week of July. The yield (A, B and C) grades was observed.The maximum yield of ‘A’ grade apples (9.44 boxes/tree) was recorded from trees sprayed with fenazaquin @0.004 percent at the rate of 70.24 percent.
