The studies were carried out by laying out replicated trial in Research Area of the Department of Agri.
Entomology, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad to determine the feasibility of integrating chemical control with
biological control for the management of cotton insect pests. The results showed that integration of bio control
agents such as Chrysoperla carnea and Trichogramma chilonis individually as well as jointly with insecticides
proved as effective as chemical control using recommended insecticides against sucking insect pests and spotted
bollworms. The integrated control proved economical as it reduced the number of insecticide sprays from 8 in the
chemical control to 2 in the integrated control treatments.
