Abstract: Field experiment was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of some novel insecticides for the control of yellow stem borer, Scirpophaga incertules (Walker) in basmati rice. All the treatments were found significantly effective in reducing the infestation of stem borer and increasing the yield compared with control. Application of chlorantraniliprole 18.5 SC @ 150 ml/ha was the most effective treatment in reducing the stem borer infestation at all observational interval resulting higher grain yield (44.10 g/ha) and it was followed by chlorantraniliprole 0.4 % GR @ 10 kg/ha.
