 ABSTRACT

The field experiment was conducted at Central Research Farm of Orissa University of Agriculture and Technology, Bhubaneswar during summer 2014-15 and kharif- 2015 to evaluate the influence of different graded levels of fertilizers and manure against brown plant hopper and green leaf hopper in paddy with twelve treatments and four replications in sub plot size of 15m x 10m taking Lalat and Swarna as test cultivar during summer 2014-15 and kharif -2015 following the recommended package of practices It was observed that the incidence of hopper population increased significantly with increase in application of NPK doses decreased markedly with basal supplementation of zinc (ZnSO4) to the NPK nutrients than application of the corresponding NPK fertilizers alone.

Key words: BPH, GLH, Zinc, Paddy
