Abstract

The yellow mite, Polyphagotarsonemus latus Banks is a major problem in chilli, during winter. Therefore, neem extracts, in five different forms viz, neem formulation, neem seed kernel extract (NSKE), neem leaf extracts (NLE) and neem bark extract (NBE) in their recommended doses i. e. 5 ml/It. The neem oil at 2 ml and propargite (57% EC) were used at 3 ml/liter of water and these were evaluated for their acaricidal effect. The results indicate that neem seed kernel extract (NSKE) at 5 ml, is most effective followed by neem formulation and neem oil.
