Various types of methods like physical, cultural, mechanical, biological, genetical and varietal were used for the control of pest in vegetable crops. Now a day’s more emphasis has been laid on traps and pheromones for insect pest control. The best method out these methods for insect pest management is use of trap crops like marigold, Chinese cabbage, coriander and spray of biopesticides. The overall study on integrated pest management has revealed that intercropping and varietal resistance also play an important role for enhancing crop yield as well as ceased the attack of particular pest.
