Abstract

The fruit borer and eggplant shoot is a major pest in Bangladesh, causing significant damage to crops. Farmers often rely on chemical insecticides for control, which can have adverse environmental and health effects. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of microbial insecticides as an alternative approach for managing ESFB and improving yield. The treatments with abamectin 1.2% + emamectin benzoate 1%, spinosad 45 SC, and Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki 5% WP significantly reduced shoo
