ABSTRACT
A field experiment was conducted in a Randomized block design to find out the effective management of white grub and termite in groundnut through bio agents and insecticide during kharif, 2014 at Instructional farm, College of Technology and Engineering (MPUAT), Udaipur. The basal application of phorate 10% G at 25 kg/ha was found safe and most effective against white grub with lowest mean population of 0.13 grub/1m row and lowest mean plant mortality due to white grub and termite were 1.04 and 0.60 per cent, respectively. Drenching of chlorpyriphos 20 EC at 2500 ml/ha, imidacloprid 200 SL at 600 ml/ha and fipronil 5% SC at 2400 ml/ha were found next effective treatments and at par to each other. Among bio-agents, Metarhizium anisopliae at 4 x 1012 conidia/ha was found most effective. While, Steinernema carpocapsae at 5 b Ijs/ha and Beauveria bassiana at 4 x 1012 conidia/ha were least effective. The minimum mean pod damage (1.33%) and highest marketable yield of 22.37 q/ha was recorded from phorate 10% G.
