Abstract: Field study was conducted to determine the efficacy of Clothianidin 50 WDG, Indoxacarb, Flubendiamide 480 SC, Fipronil 5 SC, Spinosad 45 SC, Indoxacarb 14.5 SC, Rynaxypyr 20 SC, Chorpyriphos 20 EC against the surviving larval population of gram pod borer, Helicoverpa armigera (Hub. ) on chickpea in the experimental research area of farmers field in Chandre village, Dist -Kolhapur during Rabi season 2009-10. In newer insecticides lowest number of surviving population of larvae was recorded in treatment Rynaxypyr 20 SC @ 40 g a. i. /ha 0.70 larvae/plant, highest yield recorded 15.00q/ha band lower pod damage recorded 8.10 per cent.
