Abstract: The study recorded the incidence of thrips (Thrips tabaci), jassid (Orosius albicinctus), whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) and aphid (Aphis gossypii) at weekly intervals.Thrips appeared from the 10 th Standard Meteorological Week (SMW), peaking at 6.82 per 3 leaves in the 13 th SMW, showing a significant positive correlation with maximum temperature.Jassid incidence started in the 11 th SMW, peaking at 6.10 per 3 leaves in the 15 th SMW, with strong positive correlations to maximum and minimum temperatures.Whitefly incidence also started in the 10 th SMW, peaking at 6.70 per 3 leaves in the 13 th SMW, with a significant positive correlation to maximum temperature.Aphid population peaked at 2.44 per plant in the 15 th SMW, showing a significant negative correlation with bright sunshine hours.
