Abstract


Seed treatment with phorate and carbofuran delayed the seed germination by 4-6 and 2-4 days, and flowering by 4 and 2 days, respectively. Seed treatment with 4 and 2% phorate provided maximum protection against pea leaf miner follo- wed by soil treatment with phorate 1.5kg a. i./ha and foliar spray of monocroto- phos (0.04%). Foliar application with endesulfan (0.07%) at pcd initiation provided maximum control against pod borer, followed by monocrotophos (0.04%7. Plots treated with endosulfan (0.07%) gave maximum mean grain yield i. e. 1733kg/ha, followed by monocrotophos (0.04%), seed treatment with phorate (1.5kg a. i./ha.) (4%) and soil treatment with phorate (1.5kg a.i./ha)
