Abstract
Field experiment conducted to study the effect of staggered sowing on the incidence of sucking pests in okra and their natural enemies revealed that the early sown crop had significantly less incidence than the late sown one. Two years data revealed that the least incidence of jassids, whiteflies, mites and natural enemies i.e., Coccinella septempunctata and Chrysoperla carnea occurred in the 20th January sown crop, with least incidence of aphids occurring in 6th February sown crop. The highest incidence of jassids and aphids was in the 8th April and 21st February sown crops, respectively, with highest incidence of whiteflies and mites being in 8th March sown crop.
