Chemical control of sucking complex of okra

Abstract

The field evaluation of such synthetic pesticides (Acetamiprid 19% weightable water (WW), Lambda 25% WW, Colarphipare 32% WW, Lambda 2.5% WW, and Abamectin 1.3% WW for their effectiveness on okra crops against Jassid Amrasca biguttula biguttula (Ishida) was performed during 2015 and observations were reported after 24 hours, 48 hours, 7 hours against the target insect pests. The pre-treatment count of jassid on okra was non-significant different from pesticide effectiveness (P>0.05). In contrast, the measured efficacy of different jassid insecticides, Amrasca biguttula biguttula (Ishida), was significantly different from pesticide toxicity (P
