Effect of Combined Use of Urea and Insecticides as Foliar Spray Against Green Peach Aphid Myzus persicae Sulz. on Chillies

Abstract

Studies on the combined use of urea 2% with some insecticides as foliar spray on chillies against green peach aphid Myzus persicae Sulz, revealed that methamidophos 0:05% was superior to all other insecticides with a 98.9 per cent reduction in population followed by FMC 35001 alone and FMC 35001 + urea. All the insecticides tested were compa- tible with urea and caused no phytotoxic symptoms and exhibited no significant reduc- tion in their biological efficacy.
