Abstract

The results revealed that treatment of neem formulation with azadirachtin-endosulfan (T9) at 15 days interval brought down the jassids population up to 0.68/5 plants, whereas, the application of Bt-neem formulation with azadirachtin-endosulfan-Trichogramma (T14) at 15 days intervals reduced the fruits and shoot borer infestation up to 1.93% with the maximum yield (79.70 q/ha). All the treatments significantly reduced the jassid population as well as fruit and shoot borer infestation.
