Abstract

Results revealed that maximum jassid mortility was observed in propargite 50% + bifenthrin 5% SE @ 621 + 62.1 g a.i/ha (1.10/leaf), while minimum was observed in lambda cyhalothrin 4.9 CS 15 g ai/ha (3.52/leaf) up to seven days of application. Which also suppressed the mite population. Application of Propargite 50% + Bifenthrin 5% SE @ 621 + 62.1 g a.i/ha (14.97 ton/ha) also gave maximum green fruit yield.
