Abstract

The experiment was conducted to evaluate some newer molecules against capsicum thrips, Scirtothrips dorsalis Hood under polyhouse condition. Among the evaluated insecticides thiamethoxam 25 WG at 0.20 g per litre found to be superior and reduced the thrips population with maximum yield (47.8 t /ha) and net returns (Rs. 1863700/ha) with highest B:C ratio (2.86) suggesting thiamethoxam 25 WG is cost effective and economically feasible.
