An investigation was carried out during rabi 2017-18 to evaluate the bioefficacy of seven integrated pest management modules against shoot and fruit borer, Leucinodes orbonalis (Guenee) in brinjal. M1-Moderately resistant brinjal genotype selected from screening experiments (IC 136061), M2- Control, M3-M6 comprised of various components from cultural, physical, mechanical, biological and chemical control methods in various combinations, M7-farmers practice.Module-7 consisting farmers practice received least overall mean per cent fruit infestation (10.77%) on number and weight basis compared to all other modules (M1-M6). However it was on par with M1 with regard to overall mean fruit infestation. Significantly superior performance in efficacy of modules in respect of fruit yield (343.09kg/plot, 34309.33 kg/ha) was observed in M7 in comparison to other IPM modules M1 (314.50 kg/plot, 31449.60 kg/ha), M2 (146.50 kg/plot, 14649.60 kg/ha), M3 (174.72 kg/plot, 17472.00 kg/ha), M4 (185.62 kg/plot, 18562.13 kg/ha), M5 (236.54 kg/plot, 23554.40 kg/ha), M6 (260.74 kg/plot, 26073.60 kg/ka).
