Abstract: The present investigation was carried out to field evaluation of insecticides against chilli thrips (Scirtothrips dorsalis Hood) during rabi season of 2016-17 at Central Experimental Station, Wakawali, Dist- Ratnagiri. During this experiment total seven insecticides tested viz., acetamiprid 20 SP @ 0.004, dimethoate 30 EC @ 0.6, emamectin benzoate 5 SG @ 0.002, imidacloprid 17.8 SL @ 0.004, lambda cyhalothrin 5 EC @ 0.018, spinosad 45 SC @ 0.014 and thiamethoxam 25 WG @ 0.01 percent, respectively. The overall efficacy of all three sprays revealed that spinosad 45 SC @ 0.014 percent was the best treatment which recorded minimum (1.41) mean thrips population per three leaves per plant and was significantly superior over all other treatments followed by emamectin benzoate 5 SG @ 0.002 percent recorded (1.92) and was at par with thiamethoxam 25 WG @ 0.01 percent recorded (2.09).
