A field experiment was conducted at Agricultural College Farm, Bapatla to test the efficacy of some recommended insecticides and fungicides as a tank mix application. Two insecticidal treatments (chlorantraniliprole @ ml l-1 and chlorpyriphos @ ml l-1 ) and two fungicidal treatments (tricyclazole @ g l-1 and isoprothiolane @ ml l-1 ) with an untreated control were replicated thrice in a simple randomized block design. The results showed that all the insecticide and fungicide treatments alone and in combination were found superior over untreated check. Amongst them, chlorantraniliprole + isoprothiolane ( ml l-1 + ml l-1 ) was the most effective treatment to control leaf folder infestation with per cent leaf damage reduction over control and tricyclazole ( g l-1 ) alone was superior in reducing leaf blast severity with per cent disease reduction over control. | Study on efficacy of pesticide mixtures as foliar sprays for the management of rice leaf folder Cnaphalocrocis medinalis and leaf blast Pyricularia oryzae on paddy
