The study was conducted on the assessment of management of chilli mites Polyphagotarsonemus latus Banks using Abamectin 1.8 EC. The study was carried as On- Farm –Trials at farmer’s fields in Sinduri village of Shahdol district (M.P.) during Kharif (2012-2013). Two sprays of Abamectin 1.8 EC @ 750 ml/ha at 15 days interval were applied on farmers fields as research practice (RP) and compared with farmers practise fields of indiscriminate use of insecticides. The Abamectin 1.8 EC treated fields showed 0.75 mites/leaf while, farmers practise fields showed 1.80 mites/leaf. The technology assessed showed promising and positive results with yield of 120 (q/ha) and net return of 139650 (Rs./ha) as compared to farmers practices of yield 78 (q/ha) and net return of 76100 (Rs./ha) of chilli crop. Thus, the technology was found suitable for mites management in Chilli showing reduction in mites infestation. The benefit cost ratios (B: C) were found to be 2.83 and 2.19, respectively in Abamectin 1.8 EC treated fields and farmers practice fields, respectively.
