Abstract

A field experiment was carried out with the title Management of insect pest of sorghum in kharif season. In Kharif season 2018-2019 and 2019-2020 at Sorghum Research Station, VNMKV Parbhani (MS) India. managementof shoot pests of sorghum Randomized Block Design (RBD) with seven treatments and three replications were used. In management of shoot pests different IPM components used for stem bore dead hearts 45th DAE significantly lowest per cent of dead hearts were recorded in the treatment T5 [Furrow application of carbofuron 3g @ 20 kg/ha + whorl application of carbofuron 3g @ 8 kg/ha at 35 Days after emergence] (4.56%) which was at par with T2 [Seed treatment with imidacloprid @ 3g ai/kg seed+ whorl application of carbofuron 3g @8kg/ha at 35 Days after emergence] (4.67%). Kharif 2018-19 and 2019-20.
