The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of various granular and foliar insecticides against major insect pests in irrigated rice while noting impacts on natural enemies.
Tested ten insecticide modules in irrigated rice during 2021 and 2022.
Utilized three granular formulations and three foliar insecticides.
Applied granular insecticides 20 days after transplantation and foliar insecticides at 50 days after transplantation.
Recorded insect incidence at 30, 45, and 60 days after transplantation.
Chlorantraniliprole 0.4% G and flubendiamide 480% SC effectively reduced stem borer incidence.
Granular chlorantraniliprole proved effective against leaf folder pests.
Fipronil 0.3% G recorded the lowest silver shoots caused by gall midge.
