Application of buprofezin 25 Sc @ 1.25 ml/l was the most effective in reduction of leafhopper population followed by combined application of Yellow sticky tarp (YSt) @ 2 traps/tree + azadirachtin 10, 000 ppm @ 1 ml/l-Lecancillium lecanii @ 2 g/l)-azadirachtin@ 1 ml/l. Application of buprofezin 25 Sc @ 1.25 ml/l produced significantly highest yield of 29.96 q/ha. It was attributed to higher number of fruits plant−1 (151 fruits), fruit weight (161.33 g fruit−1) and fruit yield per plant (24.36 kg) which was traced back to higher suppression of leafhoppers.
