Abstract: The investigation on “Formulation and evaluation of different IPM modules against sucking insect pests of cabbage viz., Aphids and Whiteflies†was carried out at Kittur Rani Channamma College of Horticulture, Arabhavi, Karnataka, India during rabi season of the academic year 2017-18. The experiment was laid out in randomized block design with four replications. The treatments included recommended IPM module (T1), bio-intensive IPM module (T2), adoptable IPM module (T3), Chemi-intensive module (T4) and an untreated control plot (T5). Observations on pest and natural enemies were recorded on main crop and border crop respectively before and after different sprays. Among the different IPM modules formulated and evaluated against sucking insect pests of cabbage, Adoptable IPM module consisting of the components like, sowing of mustard as an trap crop and maize as a border crop, scheduled spray of botanical pesticide like Neemazol 10000ppm @1ml/l, spray of entomopathogenic fungi like Lecanicillium lecani 2×108 CFU/ml and @2g/l, Metarhizium rileyi 2×108 CFU/ml @2g/l and spray of chemical pesticide, Rynaxypyr 18.5 SC @0.1ml/l registered lowest average population of aphids, whiteflies and was followed by Recommended IPM module and Chemi-intensive module. Further, border cropping with insectary plants like maize and mustard increased the potentiality of natural enemies viz., Ladybird beetles and hoverflies.
