Abstract

This study evaluates the efficacy of different novel insecticides, including flubendiamide, emamectin benzoate, indoxacarb, chloropyriphos, spinosad, and bifenthrin, against Leucinodes orbonalis in brinjal cultivation. The investigation was conducted at the field experiment farm of R. B. S. College Bichpuri, Agra during the Kharif season of 2023-24, selected for its historical prevalence of  L. orbonalis infestations in brinjal crops. Results indicated that flubendiamide achieved the highest reduction in pest incidence (75.30%), followed by emamectin benzoate (59.41%) and indoxacarb (57.09%). The findings underscore the potential of these novel insecticides as effective alternatives to traditional chemical controls, contributing to integrated pest management strategies that minimize environmental impact while enhancing brinjal production.
