Abstract

The ready mixture of indoxacarb 14.5SC + acetamiprid 7.7SC @ 300 and 400 ml/ha when applied twice were found more effective against the pests of okra. The above treatments were as good as indoxacarb 14.5SC @ 500 ml/ha, cypermethrin 5EC + chlorpyriphos 50EC @ 100 ml/ha, oxydemeton methyl 25EC @ 650 ml/ha and acetamiprid 20SP @ 200g/ha against sucking pests; and indoxacarb 14.5SC @ 500 ml/ha and cypermethrin 5EC + chlorpyriphos 50EC @ 100 ml/ha against fruit borer.
