Abstract

The insecticides viz., Ethripole 40 + Imidacloprid 40 WG @ 125 g/ha, Ethofenprox 10% EC @ 750 ml/ha, Buprofezin 25% S.C. @ 825 ml/ha, Pymetrozine 50 WG @ 250 g/ha, Acephate 75% S.P. @ 667 g/ha, Monocrotophos 36% S.L. @ 1390 ml/ha, Sulfoxaflor 24% S.C. @ 375 ml/ha together with untreated control were evaluated against brown plant hopper. All the treatments were effective against brown plant hopper as compared to untreated control. Sulfoxaflor 24% S.C. @ 375 ml/ha showed minimum brown plant hopper population and provided maximum grain yield compared to other treatments.
