Abstract
The present investigation entitled “Studies on insect-pests succession in tomato and management of fruit borer, Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner)” revealed that the population dynamics of whitefly, jassid, thrips, aphid and larvae of tomato fruit borer initiated after transplanting till harvest. Whitefly was appeared on the tomato crop at 36 SW with1.00 whitefly/ cage. Jassid and thrips were appeared on the tomato crop at 37 SW with 0.60 jassid/ cage and 2.00 thrips/ plant, respectively. Aphid was appeared on the tomato crop at 41 SW with 0.06 aphid/ plant, while larvae of tomato fruit borer was appeared on the tomato crop at 43 SW with 0.06 larvae/plant. The population of whitefly/cage, jassid/cage, thrips/plants, aphid/plant, larvae/ plant ranged between 0.60 to 6.13, 0.60 to 6.13, 0.20 to 3.86, 0.06 to 7.33, 0.06 to 4.06, respectively. Among the tested botanicals and insecticide, the treatment T7 (Spinosad 45% SC @ 75 g a.i./ha) was found most effective resulting in 100% reduction of larval population followed by NSKE 5% with 93.46%, Karanj seed extract 5% with 85.47%, Tobacco leaf extract 5% with 78.93%, Cannabis (bhang) leaf extract 5 % with 75.78%, Garlic extract 5 % with 66.10%, respectively. Whereas, Onion bulb extract 5% found least effective in which reduction of larval population was found 55.26%. The maximum yield of 213.43 q/ha was produced in treatment T7 (Spinosad 45% SC @ 75 g a.i./ha) followed by T1 (NSKE 5%) with 197.43 q/ha. The lowest yield of 127.25 q/ha was obtained from treatment T4 (Onion bulb extract 5%). The maximum B:C ratio of 17.93:1 was obtained in treatment T7 (Spinosad 45% SC @ 75 g a.i./ha) followed by T1 (NSKE 5%) with cost/benefit ratio of 9.55:1.
