Performance of Jute cultivars against Apion corchori, Anomis sabulifera and Polyphagotarsonemus latus

Eight jute (Corchorus capsularis) cultivars along with standard check (Var. IRC-212. & JRC-321) were evaluated against stem weevil (Apion corchon), semilooper (Anomis sabulifera) and yellow mite (Polyphagotarsonemus latus). Results revealed that the cv. NDC-2005-7 was significantly superior and most promising against stem weevil, semilooper and yellow mite with an average in~station of 9.9, 5.4 and 7.9%, respectively and may be considered as multiple resistant and significantly superior to standard check varieties JRC 212 and IRC-321.
