Abstract

Onion thrips, Thrips tabaci (L) is a key pest of onion and their control is vital to the production and profitability of this crop. If onion thrips are not controlled, damage can routinely reduce bulb yields by 23-85%. Most onion fields need protection against thrips for two to three months and multiple applications are required to control infestations, but there are few labeled insecticides that provide effective and consistent control. Therefore, the present study was conducted in two location
