The efficacy of ten insecticides against the shoot and fruit borer Erias vitella on okra was assessed in the field at Research Farm, IAS, BHU, Varanasi during kharif, 2018. Indoxacarb 14.5% SC @ 72.5 g a.i. ha-1 led to the lowest infestation of shoot (6.30 and 5.37%) and fruit (3.25 and 3.73%) after first and second spray. Highest reduction (61.22 and 74.81%) was significantly observed in the plants treated with indoxacarb 14.5% SC @ 72.5 g a.i. ha-1 followed by indoxacarb 14.5% +acetamiprid 7.7% SC @72.5+38.5 g a.i. ha-1 (51.36 and 69.09%). Indoxacarb 14.5% SC @ 72.5 g a.i ha-1 and indoxacarb14.5% + acetamiprid 7.7% SC @ 72.5+38.5 g a.i. ha-1 treated plots were the best and gave highest yield.
