Abstract

An demonstration was conducted to disseminate the IPM approach for the management of pod borer, Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) in chickpea field. We are demonstrate IPM module - SDP + Optimum seed rate (75 kg/ha) + Pheromone trap (10/ha) + Bird purcher (50/ha) + inter cropping of mustard (10:1) + One spray of Neem based insecticide at 50 per cent flowering and second spray of Trizophos 40 EC at pod formation stage. The sowing of chickpea crop was II nd fortnight of October. Under demonstrated technology they reduce the larval population (44.4 %), reduce the pod damage (42.49 %) resulted enhance the yield (33.64 %). IPM technology are ecofriedly manage the pod borer, enhance the productivity as well as profitability.
