Economics of newer insecticides against major insect pests of sesamum

BJ Chopade, PK Rathod, GM Golvankar and PT Patil

The present field trial carried out on the economics of newer insecticides on against major insect pests of sesamum at the field of Department of Entomology, Dr. PDKV, Akola, during kharif 2014. Results revealed as regards to the sesamum yield, chlorantraniliprole 18.5% w/w SC, fenvalerate 20% EC and novaluron 5.25% + indoxacarb 4.5% SC, were found to be most effective treatments recording yield of 649, 644 and 583 kg/ha respectively.
As far as economics of the treatments is concerned, fenvalerate 20% EC, triazophos 40 EC and novaluron 5.25% + indoxacarb 4.5% SC were emerged as most economic treatments recorded an ICBR of 1:18.53, 1:4.12 and 1:3.79 respectively. From the farmers point of view, the above treatments were most effective in terms of net monitory returns.
Out of the six insecticides the fenvalerate 20 EC was found to be effective and recording minimum percent infestation of gall fly and capsule borer as well as the highest 1:18.53 ICBR was recorded.
