“…On the contrary Atwal and Verma [10], Ahmad [11] reported that temperature range of 25.0⁰C to 30⁰C and RH between 70-90 % is most favourable for the development and survival of the pest. It was also in the agreement with the findings of Patel et al [12] who recorded that infestation by shoot and fruit borer started from last week of February and ended in third week of April with maximum shoot infestation (8.42%) in fourth week of march and the incidence on fruit was noticed at first picking of the crop in the last week of march with a maximum (32.36%) in the first week of June. Similar results were also seen in a study by Mannan et al [13] where the shoot infestation was only 1.33% in January which then started to increase steadily up to the month of September and fruit infestation was 5.26% in the month of January (minimum),that slightly increased in the month of February and there was a sharp increase in the month of March reaching 31.27%…”

Aims: To correlate the influence of weather variables on population dynamics, incidence and infestation of Brinjal shoot and fruit Borer (BFSB) in Brinjal. Place and Duration of Study: The study was carried out at Regional Research and Technology Transfer Station (RRTTS) at Ranital, Bhadrak Odisha and at Instructional Farm at OUAT, Bhubaneswar, Odisha for period of 1 year. Methodology: The population of Brinjal shoot and fruit Borer were recorded from transplanting to harvest of the crop. Five random plants were selected and tagged for observation recording, except boarder plants. To determine the percentage of affected shoots, brinjal plants showing signs of delicate shoots drooping, withering, and drying were counted. Similarly, the population was correlated with weather conditions and the number of fruits showing signs of bore holes on fruits was tallied to estimate the percent fruit infection. Results: The investigation indicates that quantitatively establish the relationship of weather parameters as varied with the dates of sowing (23 May,20 November2021, 21 January2022) and Brinjal fruit and shoot borer (BFSB).The studies revealed that the peak population of brinjal shoot and fruit borer was observed during 34th SMW (22-28 August), 5th SMW(30 January- 5 February) and 18th SMW(1-7May) with shoot infestation(38.44%), (11.10%) and (57.99%) respectively. The fruit was infested with a peak of 47.55%, 27.07% and 63.84% on 39th SMW (26 September- 2 October), 9th SMW (27February-5March) and 18th SMW (1-8May) respectively. The BSFB shows positive significant correlation with relative humidity. Conclusion: The population of BSFB fluctuates with change in temperature, rainfall, and relative humidity. On first sowing date BSFB population has a less population dynamics comparatively to other two sowing dates. So it is concluded for early sowing results in less pest population.

“…[28]. For brinjal, the most virulent internal feeder pest is the Shoot and Fruit Borer (FSB) [63]. By creating holes in the fruits and shoots, it not only reduces the production (number and quality) but also the fruit's vitamin C content by up to 80% and its aesthetic value.…”

The most important and commonly grown vegetable for both raw and cooked purposes is brinjal, or Solanum melongena Linnaeus. It is a member of the solanaceae family and is also known as eggplant or baingan. Nevertheless, it faces significant threat from a prominent pest known as the eggplant shoot and fruit borer, scientifically termed Leucinodes orbonalis Guenee, capable of inflicting damage ranging from 37% to 100%. This pest can also diminish both the quantity and quality of eggplant produced. Farmers persist in depending on pesticides to address this problem; nevertheless, excessive pesticide application has resulted in negative impacts on the environment, unintended beneficial organisms, phytotoxicity, pesticide resistance, pest resurgence, bioaccumulation, and secondary pest outbreaks. In different regions of the world, it has been discovered that a number of insects, including Various pests such as the Fruit and Shoot Borer, White Fly, Leaf Hopper, Thrips, Mites, Leaf Roller, and Red Spider Mite contribute to losses in eggplant. Moreover, this insect can also cause severe harm to other vegetables within the Solanaceae family, acting as an alternative host. The adult insect can eventually withstand the problems of chemical pesticides and find it challenging to control the insect population in standing crops due to the larva's unique ability to subsist on a monophagous diet supported by homing and tunneling behavior. It results in a decrease in both yield and vitamin C content. This is due to the fact that high humidity and moderate temperatures encourage the population growth of the Brinjal Fruit and Shoot Borer, which results in significant losses in hot, humid weather. Farmers primarily use chemical insecticides, which they apply carelessly to manage this pest. A lot of farmers also employ biological control techniques and home-based remedies like marigold barriers, cow urine, ashes, and so forth. Farmers are unable to totally manage the infestation, though, and the measures cost more to produce than they really bring.

“…The larvae bore into tender shoots in the early stage resulting in drooping shoots, which are readily visible in the infested fields at the later stage, caterpillars bore into flower buds and fruits, rendering the fruits unfit for consumption and marketing, resulting in direct yield losses. In Tamil Nadu, the insect has been said to cause losses of between 20.7 and 60.0 percent [4]. The brinjal shoot and fruit borer is controlled with a number of insecticides.…”

The experiment was conducted at the Central Research Farm (CRF), SHUATS, Naini, Prayagraj during Rabi 2022. Seven treatments were evaluated against, Leucinodes orbonalis i.e., Emamectin benzoate 5% SG @ 0.4ml/lit (T1) (14.34), Neem oil 5% @ 5ml/lit (T2) (20.71), Spinosad 45% SC @ 0.5ml/lit (T3) (12.97), Chlorantraniliprole 20% SC @ 0.5ml/lit (T4) (9.98), Beauveria bassiana @ 2gm/lit (T5) (17.04), Indoxacarb 14.5% SC @ 0.5ml/lit (T6) (15.67), Metarhizium anisopliae @ 4gm/lit (T7) (18.51). The yields among the treatments were significant. The highest yield was recorded in T4 Chlorantraniliprole 20 SC (168 q/ha) followed by, T3 Spinosad 45 SC (159 q/ha), T1 Emamectin Benzoate 5 SG (136 q/ha), T6 Indoxacarb 14.5 SC (133 q/ha), T5 Beauveria bassiana (112 q/ha), T7 Metarhizium anisopliae (103 q/ha), and the treatments T2 Neem oil 5% (100 q/ha) was least effective among all the treatments. Control plot T8 (74 q/ha) yield. When cost benefit ratio worked out, interesting result was achieved, among the treatment studied, the best and most economical treatment recorded in T4 Chlorantraniliprole 20 SC (1:7.10) followed by, T3 Spinosad 45 SC (1:6.47), T1 Emamectin Benzoate 5 SG (1:6.34), T6 Indoxacarb 14.5 SC (1:5.71), T5 Beauveria bassiana (1:5.65), T7 Metarhizium anisopliae (1:5.11), and the treatments T2 Neem oil 5% (1:4.99) was least effective among all the treatments. Control plot T8 (1:3.86) was recorded.
