Abstract:
A field experiment was carried out during kharif 2019-20 on supervisory management of pod fly in pigeonpea variety GRG 811 sown on different dates with insecticides recommended in package of practices. It was found that need based application of imidacloprid 17.8 SL 0.20 ml + jaggery 10 g l-1 as first spray and thiamethoxam 25 WG 0.2 g + jaggery 10 g l-1 as second spray at 15 days interval effectively controlled pod fly in crop sown on 20th July. While, crops sown on 5th August and 20th August required three sprays, indicating higher pest incidence in late sown crops necessitating an additional spray.
