An experiment was conducted for two successive years during 2013-14 and 2014-15 at Agricultural Research Station, Bidar and Kalburgi, to assess the chemical control of sugarcane early shoot borer (Chilo infuscatellus (Snellen). Nine insecticides namely, Chlorantraniliprole 0.4 GR, Fipronil 0.3 GR, Cartaphydrochloride 4G, Chlorantraniliprole 18.5 SC, Fipronil 5 SC, Flubendiamide 480 SC, Emamectin benzoate 0.5 SG, Chlorpyriphos 20 EC and compared with untreated control using randomized block design with three replications. Significant differences were noticed among the treatments. Among the different insecticides evaluated, Chloranthriniliprole 18.5 SC and Chloranthriniliprole 0.4 GR, were proved superior by recording lowest per cent incidence of early shoot borer and highest cane yield.
