Abstract

A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of insecticides and bio-pesticides against Leaf hopper/Jassid (Empoasca kerri) and spotted pod borer (Maruca vitrata) infesting cowpea crop at Agricultural Research farm of B.R.D. PG College Deoria during kharif season 2022.The result revealed that Imidacloprid 17.8 SL @ 1ml/l was found to be most effective treatment against Leaf hopper/Jassid (Empoasca kerri) caused high mortality rate (1.34 Jassid/3leaves) over the control.It was followed by Thiamethoxam 25WG @ 0.5g/l and Emamectin benzoate 5%SG @ 1ml/l caused mortality 3.47/3leaves and 2.29/3leaves, respectively.The lowest pod damage caused by spotted pod borer (11.93%) and high pod yield (29.83 q/ha) also recorded in the plot treated with Lambda-cyhalothrin 5% EC @ 1ml/l was found to be most effective against spotted pod borer.Thus Imdacloprid 17.8SL @ 1ml/l and Lambdacyhalothrin 5% EC being most effective treatments could be viable option to manage Leaf hopper/Jassid and Spotted pod borer in cowpea production.
