Abstract
An experimental trial was conducted to evaluate the Cost benefit analysis of different biopesticides use in for control of brinjal root and shoot borer (Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee) during Rabi season 2019-2020 at Bundelkhand University campus, Jhansi( U.P.), India. During the study, brinjal shoot and fruit borer, Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee was the major pest found infesting this crop in Jhansi area of Bundelkhand region. Results revealed that the treatments were found significant superior over control. The economics pattern of bio-pesticides viz., Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) 2.0 kg/ha, Neem oil @ 0.5%, NSKE @ 0.5%, has found effective compared to other bio-pesticides for the control of brinjal shoot and fruit borer. The treatment Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) with its recommended dose recorded the highest net income was 1,81,120 Rs/ha-1 with benefit cost ratio of 13:733.5 with yield 4.528 q/ha. It can be concluded that maximum control of brinjal shoot and fruit borer, provided through the bio-pesticides followed by two sprays at recommended interval and doses of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) 2.0 kg/ha, Neem oil @ 0.5%, NSKE @ 0.5%, has found effective and economic for the control of brinjal shoot and fruit borer, Leucinodes orbonalis Guene.
