Among the biopesticides NSKE 5% was found to be best with the per cent protection of 68.18 per cent. Against leaf miner the most effective chemicals were found to be Acetamiprid 20 SP @ 1g/l and Imidacloprid 17.8 SL @ 0.3 ml/l with per cent protection of 89.83 and 89.24 per cent over untreated ckeck.
