EVALUATION OF INSECTICIDES FOR THE CONTROL OF JASMINE BUDWORM

Abstract

Two field experiments were conducted for the control of jasmine (Jasminum sambac L.) budworm, Hendecasis duplifascialis (Hmpsn.), revealed that application of deltame- thrin 25 g a. i./ha or cypermethrin 150 g a. i/ha reduced the infestation by 90.11 and 90.21 per cent in the first experiment and 87.29 and 86.89 per cent in the second expori- ment respectively. Application of FMC 35001, 480 g a. i/ha or moncerophos 360 a a. i./ha were also equally effective in reducing the budworm damage.
