Abstract

Study was conducted at Food Quality Testing Laboratory, Navsari Agricultural University, Navari396 450 to observe the dissipation pattern of imidacloprid and lambda-cyhalothrin. Applicationof imidacloprid 0.005 per cent gave half life and waiting period of 2.78 and 1.04 days, respectively, while, it was 2.52 and 3.18 days for imidacloprid at 0.01 per cent. Lambda-cyhalothrin at 0.0025 per cent in/on mango fruits showed half life period of 2.98 days and 6.39 days of waiting period. Whereas, in double to recommended dose (0.005%) the half life period of 3.23 days and waiting period of 10.39 days was observed.
