Abstract

The present study was conducted during 2018-19 at Chili and vegetable Research Unit, Central Research Station, Dr. PDKV Akola. The experiment laid out in Randomized Block Design with nine treatments viz. Removal of Infested shoots, Light Traps, NSE (5%) and their combinations in comparison with a Pesticide treatment and a Control (Untreated) replicated thrice. The observations were recorded on percent shoot infestation and fruit infestation (weight and number basis). The result indicated, T7 (Removal of infested shoots + Light Trap + NSE (5%)) was the best alternative to T8 (Pesticides spray) for maximum marketable fruits with minimum shoot and fruit infestation. Both the treatments T7 and T2 were effective for the non pesticidal management of brinjal shoot and fruit borer.
