Abstract

Fenvalerate 20% EC @ 0.02% was most effective in reducing infestation of Chromatomyia horticola on pea (Pisum sativum L.). The treatment with Cypermethrin 25% EC @ 0.000625% also performed well. Neem oil 1%, Chlorpyriphos 20% EC @ 0.004% conc. and NSKE 5%, were found relatively more effective. However, Deltamethrin 2.8% @ 0.004% conc. as well as Alphamethrin 10% EC @ 0.0025% did not manifest desirable effectiveness against the pest.
