Evaluation of different integrated pest management modules against leafhopper in okra

The present research was conducted to find the field-effectiveness of various pest management modules (MI: bio-intensive module, MII: integrated module, MIII: chemical module, MIV: farmer’s practices module and MV: untreated control module) against leafhopper. Module III chemical module, showed lowest population of leafhoppers (3.63 nymphs/3 leaves) followed by farmer’s practices (3.71 nymphs/3 leaves) as compared to Integrated module (4.04 nymphs/3 leaves) in kharif. Similarly, during rabi season chemical module recorded minimum leafhopper population (3.45 nymphs/3 leaves) followed by farmer’s practices (3.74 nymphs/3 leaves) as comparison with integrated (4.24 nymphs/3 leaves).
