Year: 2022
Type: article
Abstract: Seed treatment with imidacloprid 500 FS @ 6.00 ml/kg of seeds followed by foliar spray of fipronil 5 SC @ 500 ml/ha at 12 days was found effective treatment with minimum dead heart percentage (28.9%) and maximum grain yield (20.9 q/ha). The next effective treatment was of seed treatment with clothianidin 50 WDG @ 2.5 g/kg of seeds followed by foliar spray of fipronil 5 SC @ 500 ml/ha at 12 DAE (30.1% dead hearts, 19 q/ha grain yield).
