Studies were carried out to see the effect of neem samples, neem oil, fenoxycarb and NK-I 35120 @ 5.0, 1.0, 0.64 and 0.25 percent, respectively against sucking insect pest complex of cotton under natural, semi-natural and under controlled conditions. In the laboratory as well as field experiments, neem sample gave significant control of jassid, thrips and aphid. The application of NK-I 35120 and fenoxycarb did not show any effect on sucking insect pests under field condition. In the laboratory, however, the moulting duration was prolonged in case of all the insects.
