Abstract

The results revealed that thiamethoxam 25% WG, acetamiprid 20% SP and triazophos 20% EC were found to be the most effective in reducing the population of whitefly and leafhopper. The treatments of azadirachtin 0.03% EC, jatropha oil and Beauveria bassiana 5% WP were found relatively less harmful whereas, indoxacarb 14.5% SC was observed relatively toxic to the coccinellid beetles.
