According to Jyothsna (2013), among all the chemicals tested, flubendiamide (60 g a.i./ha) was found to be the
most effective one with a maximum reduction in
D. indica
population (65.50%), followed by flubendiamide +
thiacloprid at 48 + 48 g a.i./ha (62.12%) and lambda cyhalothrin at 18.75 g a.i./ha (59.22%).
Shimoge and Vemuri (2014) found that flubendiamide at 60 g a.i./ha recorded lowest fruit borer infestation of
11.07 as against 39.15 per cent fruit borer infestation in control on number basis. Flubendiamide provided good
protection and registered significantly less incidence of
Maruca vitrata
(Geyer) larvae and pod damage over
control during both the seasons.
Bansode et al. (2015) evaluated efficacy of newer insecticides against
Earias vitella
Fab. infesting okra and the
results indicated that flubendiamide @ 60 g a.i./ha was the most effective treatment by recording lowest per cent
(13.42%) fruit infestation with highest yield of 15.27 tonnes/ha followed by indoxacarb @ 75 g a.i./ha.
