Relative bioefficacy of different insecticides against sucking pest complex of tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum L.) and their effect on natural enemies present under field condition

The field experiment was carried out on tomato in the Rabi season of 2019-20 at Vegetable Research Farm, Institute Agricultural Science, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India. crop variety, Arka Vikas (Selection 22) selected to evaluate bioefficacy nine different insecticidal treatments against sucking pest complex and natural enemies under conditions. Two sprays 15 days intervals ten with three replications were applied. Diafenthiuron 50% WP, Abamectin 1.8% EC, Buprofezin 25% SC, Indoxacarb 14.5% Spinosad 45% Chlorantraniliprole 18.5% Pymetrozine WG, Flonicamid Lancer Gold (50 + 1.8) % SP control (water spray). Observations recorded one day before 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 10th, 15th after each spray. For controlling Whitefly (B. tabaci), gold observed be best (76.98%), followed by (69.03%) (59.39%). At same time, excellent (70.62%) Aphids (A. gossypii), (67.15%) (65.48%). In case a reduction damage Thrips (T. showed result (75.60%), (68.45%) (65.69%). However, all minute toxicity for enemies; yet significantly safer among them.
