Abstract
Studies were carried out during 2003 and 2004 to find out the release technology of Trichogramma chilonis Ishii (weekly releases from July to October @ 1, 50, 000 ha) for the management of cotton bollworms. Releases as tricho-card (100, 150 and 200 points/ ha) were compared with adult releases. On the basis of incidencc of bollworms among fruiting bodies (17.63 and 16.79%), green bolls (26.87 and 14.14%), parasitization of Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) eggs (17.41 and 19.64%) and seed cotton yield (8.24 and 9.26 q/ha). The releases as adult proved better. Releases at 200 points/ ha was better than releases at 100 and 150 points/ha.
