Repeated use of single insecticide for pod borers in pigeonpea may create some serious problem of development of resistance and residue in grain. Use of bio-pesticides is best alternate option of toxic insecticides. The our study shows that the use of biopesticides was reduce the cost of pesticides application and result excellent control major of pod borer in pigeonpea and safe guard for natural enemies. The result revealed that all the selected bio-pesticides treatments were found safer to natural enemies which helped to enhancing the activity of natural enemies’ population in pigeonpea crop. date: 2019 date_type: published publication: Journal of Entomology and Zoology Studies volume: 7 number: 2 pagerange: 91-95 refereed: TRUE citation: Agale, S V and Rangarao, G V and Ambhure, K G and Gopalakrishnan, S and Wani, S P (2019) Effect of selected bio-pesticides on natural enemies in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L.) crop.
