The field trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of biopesticides against leaf Webber and Diamondback moth on mustard at Research-cum-Instructional Farm of Raj Mohini Devi College of Agriculture and Research Station, Ambikapur (Chhattisgarh), India. The treatments used in experiment are T1-Neem leaf extract, T2- Bacillus thuringiensis, T3- Lecanicillium lacanii, T4- Neem oil, T5- Beauveria bassiana, T6- Metarhizium anisopliae, T7- Untreated control. The overall effect on the population of leaf webber after three, seven and ten days of first and second spraying revealed that the plots applied with Beauveria bassiana recorded the lowest (0.08 larvae/plant). The overall influence on the population of diamondback moth after three, seven and ten days of first and second spraying revealed that the plots applied with Beauveria bassiana recorded the lowest (0.06 larvae/plant)
Beauveria bassiana, neem oil, Metarhizium anisopliae biopesticides, leaf Webber, Diamondback mot.
The effect on the population of leaf webber after three, seven and ten days of first and second spraying demonstrated that the average leaf webber population after treatment application revealed that the plots applied with Beauveria bassiana recorded the lowest (0.08 larvae/plant). In order to control leaf webber, the most effective biopesticides were Beauveria bassiana > Lecanicillium lecanii > Neem leaf extract > Bacillus thuringiensis > Neem oil > Metarhizium anisopliae > Control. The overall influence on the population of diamondback moth after three, seven and ten days of first and second spraying demonstrated that average diamondback moth population after treatment application revealed that the plots applied with Beauveria bassiana recorded the lowest (0.06 larvae/plant). In order to suppress the diamondback moth, the most effective biopesticides were Beauveria bassiana > Metarhizium anisopliae > neem oil > Lecanicillium lecanii > neem leaf extract > Bacillus thuringiensis > control
