The emergence of pulse beetle, (Callosobruchus chinensis L.) observed after 4 weeks during both years i.e. 2010-11 and 2011-12. During year 2010-11 the lowest grain damage due to pulse beetle in storage after 4 weeks was found in spinosad treated plot followed by indoxacarb which were at par. The grain damage per cent in azadirachtin and endosulfan were at par. The Bt and profenphos treated plots wear at par. The lowest grain damage per cent after 5 weeks was in spinosad followed by indoxacarb. During year 2011-12 after 4 weeks in storage, the lowest grain damage per cent was in spinosad followed by indoxacarb and lamda cyhalothrin. The grain damage was highest in control plot 57.3 per cent.", issn = "23191473", journal = "IJAIR", keywords = "Grain;Greengram;Insecticide;Pulse Beetle;Storage", month = "July", number = "1", pages = "27-30", title = "{E}ffect of {P}re-{H}arvest {S}pray of {I}nsecticides on {P}ulse {B}eetle ({C}allosobruchus chinensis {L}.) {E}mergence in {G}reen {G}ram ({V}igna radiata ({L}.) {W}ilczek)", volume = "12", year = "2023", }
