Field experiments were conducted during Kharif 2010 and 2011 to evaluate the efficacy of six newer insecticides against sucking insect pests on okra cv Arka Anamika. Thiamethoxam spraying recorded the lowest leafhopper population and all the six insecticides were significantly superior to control in both the years. Whitefly population was lowest in spiromesifen treated plots.
