Abstract: 

Field experiments was conducted at BACA. AAU. Anand on relative efficacy of different ten biocides against sucking insect pests of groundnut. Neem seed kernel extract (NSKE) @ 5 % and Vanguard 0.15 % EC @ 0.0006 % was found highly effective against jassid and thrips infesting groundnut and exhibited significantly higher pod and stover yield.
