    Comparative studies of botanicals and new molecules on storability and field establishment in mungbean (Vigna radiata L. Wilzeck)
    (ANDUAT,Kumarganj,Ayodhya, 2021-02-28) Bhati, Jitender; Singh, R.B.
    The present investigation entitled “Comparative studies of botanicals and new molecules on storability and field establishment in mungbean {Vigna radiata (L.) Wilzeck}” was carried out in Complete Randomized Design in Laboratory under ambient storage condition and field experiment under Randomized Block Design with three replications. A comparative study of botanicals and new molecules on storability and field establishment in mungbean {Vigna radiata (L.) Wilzeck} of mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek) under Seed Entomology laboratory of Seed Science and Technology, Acharya Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj, Ayodhya during 2019 and 2020. Sixteen included control, newer insecticides and botanicals viz. Emamectin benzoate @ 40.0 mg/kg1 seed, Spinetorum @ 8.5 mg/kg-1 seed, Sivanto prime @ 0.01 ml/kg-1 seed, Karanj oil@ 5ml/kg seed, Castor oil @ 5 ml/kg seed, Sunflower oil @ 5 ml/kg seed, Mustard oil @ 5 ml/kg seed, Sesamum oil @ 5 ml/kg seed, Neem oil @ 5 ml/kg seed, Neemoz gold @ 5 ml/kg-1 seed , Coconut oil @ 5 ml/kg seed, Neem leaf powder @ 5g/kg seed, Neem kernel powder @ 5g/kg seed and Gorakhmundi powder @5g/kg seed as seed protectants along with Deltamethrin 2.8 EC @ 0.04ml/kg seed as check and control (Untreated) were tried to evaluated under ambient condition. The observations were taken in respect to percent seed moisture content, percent seed germination, speed of germination, shoot length (cm), root length (cm), seedling length (cm), seedling dry weight (g), vigour index-i, vigour index-ii, percent seed damage, percent loss of seed weight and field condition on evaluation of percent field emergence and crop establishment. The results revealed that among the tested seed protectants, Emamectin benzoate @ 40 mg/kg-1 seed followed by Sivanto prime @ 0.01 ml/kg-1 seed, Spinetorum @ 8.5 mg/kg-1 seed, Neemoz gold @ 5 ml/kg-1 seed and Karanj oil @ 5ml/kg seed were found most effective treatment against Callosobruchus chinensis (L.) on storability of mungbean due to least percent seed damage and percent loss of seed weight with high percent seed germination under ambient storage period. Similarly the well maintained percent field emergence and crop establishment in mungbean for long term (up to 6 months) under environmental condition.
