In another field experiment it was observed that spraying of different insecticides commencing from the time of flowering along with one application of disulfotan granules at the rate of 1 kg ai/ha at the time of sowing reduced the incidence of pea aphid and pod borers and increased the yield significantly. On a benefit cost ratio basis the effective insecticides could be ranked as follows: f enithion >f enitrothion > monocrotophos > carbaryl > phosalone > quinalphos.
