Abstract

The present investigation was carried out at the experimental farm of Project Coordinating Unit Sesame and Niger (ICAR), College of Agriculture, Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh) during summer season, 2022. The results revealed that the peak period for the incidence of whitefly and mirid bug were recorded in 19th standard week while peak period for the incidence of leafhopper was recorded in 20 standard week. The 40°C maximum and 24°C minimum temperature and 59% morning and 30% evening relative humidity were found congenial for the multiplication of whitefly and mirid bug while 41.70°C maximum and 27.60°C minimum temperature and 52% morning and 28% evening relative humidity were found congenial for the multiplication of leafhopper.
