- Observation Four local cultivars had undamaged seed yields comparable with MA 2/1.
- Observation Three pest groups caused 70–80% seed damage.
- Intervention effect Deltamethrin significantly reduced overall yield loss per hectare.
- Intervention effect Deltamethrin significantly reduced the percentage of potential seed yield lost.
- Intervention effect Deltamethrin appeared ineffective against Melanagromyza associated yield loss.
- Intervention effect Deltamethrin appeared ineffective against coreid bug associated yield loss.
