Student's Instructional Farm (SIF) of Chandra Shekhar Azad University of Agriculture and Technology in Kanpur (U.P.), India was the location where the field tests were carried out in order to screen several chickpea varieties/germplasm for their resistance against H. armigera (Hubner). Twenty different chickpea varieties/germplasm were tested for the presence of H. armigera (Hubner). These varieties/germplasm included Radhey, Avrodhi, K-850, KWR-108, IPC-1370, IPC-1374, GNG-2391, GNG-2392, Pusa-391, Pusa-397, KGD-1918, KGD-1145, KGD-1316, KGD-1320, KGD-2018, KGD-2019, JG-174, and JG-176. Additionally, two check varieties/germplasm, KGD-2020 (Resistant check) and KGD-1168 (Susceptible check), were also used. The variety/germplasm of Radhey had the lowest overall mean population of H. armigera larvae per plant, which was recorded as 0.43 larvae per plant. Radhey also had the lowest pod damage per percent, which was recorded as 9.86 percent. KGD-1320 had the highest grain yield across all the chickpea varieties/germplasm, with 16.08 q/ha.
