Abstract

A field experiment on the relative efficacy of botanical and biopesticides against aphid Hyadaphis coriandri (Das) on fennel was conducted in 2021-22. The results revealed that azadirachtin 0.03 EC proved most effective, followed by NSKE (5%) and Neem oil (1%), whereas, Metarhizium anisopliae 1.15 WP, Beauveria bassiana 1.15 WP and Leacanicillium lecani 1.15 WP were proved least effective. The treatment of Karanj oil (1%) and karanj seed extracts (5%) were found moderately effective against aphid.
