ABSTRACT
Management of tomato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Genn.) on tomato hybrid, Arka Vikas by insecticides was carried out during 2012-13 cropping season. Preliminary trails and all the experimental studies were conducted in the field Main Agricultural station , UAS, Raichur campus Raichur, Karnataka.The results revealed that, the insecticide viz., triazophos 40 EC 1.5ml/l and chlorantraniliprole 10 SC .3 ml/l were found to be best most effective against whitefly and the ToLCV disease incidence. Next superior treatments in order of priority were acetamiprid 20 SP>thiamethoxam 25 WG > buprofezin 25 SC> diafenthuron 25 WP > Commercial neem1500 ppm.
