A field experiment was conducted on bio-intensive management of (Hübner) Helicoverpa armigera Hardwick in tomato on a farmer's field at Runaj, Sojitra taluka, Anand (Gujarat) during 2018-19 and rabi, 2019-20. Results revealed that there was no significant difference observed between BIPM package and chemical control with regard to number of larvae/plant and fruit damage. The chemical control H. armigera module recorded the highest yield (16.43 t/ha) which was at par with the yield recorded in BIPM package (16.25 t/ha). The lowest yield was recorded in untreated control (10.89 t/ha).
