Abstract

Experiment was carried out under field condition at Main Agricultural Research Station, University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad to evaluate efficacy of different organic amendments superimposed with neem based pesticides against chilli sucking pests. Among different treatments, split application of neem cake @ 125 kg/ha + vermicompost @ 625 kg/ha at transplanting and 50 days later (with 50 per cent nitrogen) and Nimbecidine and NSKE spray interventions later was found to be the most effective treatment. The same treatment with 100% N resulted in significantly reduced activity of sucking pests and higher dry chilli yield (5.28 q/ha) with net return of Rs. 17492/
