To evaluate the efficacy of new insecticides against brinjal shoot and fruit borer (BSFB), L. orbonalis, field experiment was carried out in a randomized block design with seven treatments (six insecticides and one control) and three replications during kharif 2017 at Main Agricultural Research Station (MARS), Raichur. Among the treatments the lowest mean per cent shoot damage was recorded in the treatment with emamectin benzoate 5 SG (5.41) followed by chlorantraniliprole 18.5 SC (5.83) and flubendiamide 39.5 SC (5.93) and were superior than the untreated control (14.66) after first and second spray. After third spray the lowest mean per cent fruit damage was recorded in the treatment with chlorantraniliprole 18.5 SC (14.32) followed by flubendiamide 39.5 SC (15.78) and emamectin benzoate 5 SG (16.30) and were superior than the other treatments. The highest yield was observed in the treatment with emamectin benzoate 5 SG (25.9 t.ha-1) followed by flubendiamide 39.5 SC (23.7 t.ha-1) and chlorantraniliprole 18.5 SC (21.8 t.ha-1) compared to the untreated control (10.4 t.ha-1) and recorded maximum benefit cost ratio in the field treated with emamectin benzoate 5 SG (1: 3.17) followed by flubendiamide 39.5 SC (1: 2.96) and chlorantraniliprole 18.5 SC (1: 2.63).
