Abstract:
Chemigation helps to reduce the labour cost, time and wind drift problems and also give same efficiency in terms of pest management as compared to foliar spray. Out of ten insecticidal treatments at different intervals, data indicated that among foliar spray treatment Imidacloprid 17.8 SL + Cynatraniliprole 10.26 OD was the best in reducing almost all the five major insect pests, recording 0.89 aphid index, 0.42 whitefly/leaf except jassids. Among chemigation treatment Imidacloprid 17.8 SL + Cynatraniliprole 10.26 OD was the best treatment recording 0.54 pod borer and 0.89 spotted pod borer larva per plant.
