Abstract: Field experiments were conducted on integrated pest management (IPM) in rice with 2 treatments viz., IPM and farmers practices on 0.40 ha area each by Agriculture Research Station, Sakoli, Dist.Bhandara, Maharashtra for ive years on 3 farmers' ields in each years from kharif 2015 to kharif2019 with an objective to validate IPM practices from a basket of options available and demonstrate to farmers the management of pests in a holistic way (including insects, diseases and weeds).The results on pooled data revealed that theIPM practice was found more effective as compared to farmer practices in terms of management of insect pest of rice crop viz.stem borer and leaf folder, reduction of sheath rot disease and weed incidence translating into higher yield and higher Bene it-Cost ratio. MATERIAL AND METHODSIntegrated pest management (IPM) in rice trials were conducted on with 2 treatments viz., IPM and farmers practices on 0.40 ha area each by Agriculture Research Station, Sakoli, Dist.Bhandara in Maharashtra state for ive years on 3 farmers ields in each year from kharif2015 to kharif2019.Details of IPM trialsinformation were given below.
