Abstract: A field experiment was conducted during summer, 2000 and 2001 at Pusa, Bihar to evaluate the impact of weather parameters on the incidence and activity of Earias vittella Fab. in okra CV" Pusa Sawani'. The analysis revealed that the pest activity started to buildup from four weeks age of the crop and remained intensified critically below a maximum temperature of 35 C and above a minimum temperature of 22 C. Significant negative correlation with maximum ternperature and positive relationships with minimum temperature, relative numidity, vapour pressure and rainfall were observed. Regression models explained 93 to 95 per cent variability due to weather parameters for okra borer infestation.
