Evaluation of seed dressing chemicals for the management of sucking pests in summer groundnut

GM Parmar, DV Khanpara and RM Vikani

Field experiments were conducted during summer seasons of 2009-11 at the Main Oilseeds Research Station, Junagadh University of Agricultural, Junagadh to find out the effective and economical control measures for the management of jassids and thrips in groundnut. Results indicated that the significantly lowest population of jassids and the thrips was recorded in the treatment of imidacloprid 600 FS @ 4 ml/kg seed and thiamethoxam 70 WS @ 2 g/kg seed, respectively. The highest pod yield was recorded from imidacloprid 600 FS @ 4 ml/kg seed (1962 kg/ha), imidacloprid 600 FS @ 2 ml/kg seed (1947 kg/ha), thiamethoxam 70 WS @ 2 g/kg seed (1917 kg/ha) and thiamethoxam 70 WS @ 1 g/kg seed (1897 kg/h). The highest cost benefit ratio (1: 8.76) was observed in imidacloprid 600 FS @ 2 ml/kg seed followed by imidacloprid 600 FS @ 4 ml/kg (1: 5.47), thiamethoxam 70 WS @ 1 g/kg seed (1:4.13) and thiamethoxam 70 WS @ 2 g/kg seed (1:2.60).
