abstract
For controlling pest complex of cabbage, all the treatments were significantly superior over control. Spinosad (0.3ml/lit.) was the most superior treatment followed by Indoxacarb (0.5 ml/lit.) The treatments Novaleuron (T₁), Flubendiamide (T₃), Enamectin Benzoate (T₅) and Profenophos (T₆) were at par with each other. The bio-pesticide, NSKE 5% (T₇) showed poor result as compared to chemical pesticides in controlling cabbage pest complex. All the treatments recorded significantly higher yield over control. The highest yield of cabbage was recorded in Spinosad (0.3 ml/lit.) treated plot followed by Indoxacarb (0.5 ml/lit.).Regarding yield performance the treatments, Novaleuron (T₁), Flubendiamide (T₃), Emamectin Benzoate (T₅), Profenophos (T₆) were at par with each other. In general, it can be concluded that spraying with Spinosad (0.3ml/lit.), Indoxacarb (0.5ml/lit.) and NSKE (5%) were effective measures for the control of Cabbage butterfly, Diamond back moth, Tobacco caterpillar and cabbage head borer.
