摘要：To develop an IPM module against cotton leafhopper different tactics like, leafhopper resistant cultivar (KC 2)
were integrated in different combinations and were evaluated. When the susceptible LRA 5166 was raised from
imidacloprid treated seed with cluster bean intercrop and need based application of dimethoate 0.03 % leafhopper
population was reduced by 79.01 per cent and seed cotton yield increased by 31.76 %. The pest reduction was
57.08 % with mere introduction of resistant cultivar viz., KC 2; the yield increase was 58.82 %. The yield increase
was 125.88 % when the resistant cultivar KC 2 was raised from imidacloprid treated seeds, grown with cluster
bean intercrop and applied with dimethoate on need basis.
