Abstract
Evaluation of botanicals and biopesticides on the management of cotton bollworm was carried out during 2004–05 and 2005–06 at the Department of Entomology, Dr. P D K V, Akola in a randomized block design. In all twenty treatments consisting of NSE 5%, neem oil 1%, azadirachtin 1500 ppm, CASE 5% were evaluated initially against sucking pests and continued further for evaluation against bollworm complex by scheduling the treatments viz., HaNPV 250 LE/ha, Bt 1000 g/ha and spinosad 45 SC @ 0. 01%. A application of NSE 5% and azadirachtin 1500 ppm followed by spinosad 45 SC as well as NSE 5% and azadirachtin 1500 ppm followed by HaNPV 250 LE/ha emerged as the most effective treatment schedules in minimizing the green fruiting bodies damage caused due to H. armigera. Similarly, the influence of NSE 5% and azadirachtin 1500 ppm followed by spinosad 45 SC and NSE 5% and azadirachtin 1500 ppm followed by Bt 1000 g/ha performed better against larval population of E. vitella damage in green fruiting damage. The treatment schedules comprising NSE 5% and azadirachtin 1500 ppm followed by spinosad 45 SC as well as Bt 1000 g/ha found effective in reducing the infestation of pink bollworm in green bolls and loculi damage. The treatments containing NSE 5% and azadirachtin 1500 ppm followed by spinosad 45 SC, NSE 5% as well as azadirachtin 1500 ppm followed by Bt 1000 g/ha were found effective in recording the lowest open boll and loculi damage as well as minimum bad seed cotton due to bollworm complex at harvest. The treatment, NSE 5% followed by spinosad 45 SC observed as the most effective treatment as it has obtained the highest seed cotton yield.
