This resulted in exploration of new alternatives with lesser residues and lower environment threat. One such thing is exploring the opportunities of using ecofriendly insecticides such as Bacillus thuringiensis (Berliner), Beauveria bassiana and NSKE 5% which can provide alternative, eco-friendly options to control this insect pest (Jeyarani and Karuppuchamy, 2010). Keeping in view, the present study was undertaken to evaluate the field efficacy of green insecticides against H. armigera. |
