Abstract

Highest seed cotton yield was recorded due to the treatment with spinosad (1962 kg/ha) followed by imidacloprid + profenofos (1975 kg/ha). The next effective treatments were neem oil enriched with fermented cow urine (1720 kg/ha), Uplenchwar mixture (1680 kg/ha), fermented butter milk of cow (1635 kg/ha) and Banas mixture 1.0 per cent (1611 kg/ha). The fermented butter milk of cow was the most economical treatment.
