The IPM foundation is extremely responsive in terms of aims and objectives and combines holistic thinking by steadily updating the mechanics inputs besides removing the deficits of current plant protection practices. The impact of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in decline of cotton stem weevil in ecofriendly class attains significance in recent days. IPM is not only tangible safe, but too cost effective. In a field trial, three situations—IPM modules 1, 2, and farmers' practices—were secondhand in this study to combat understand stem weevils. Among the three treatments, IPM piece 2 which exists of basal request of FYM 25 t/ha and 250 kg/ha of neem cake, children treatment accompanying Beauveria bassania @10g/kg of seed, border crop accompanying Hibiscus cannabinus, soil drenching with Imidacloprid 17.80 SL @ 25 g a.i /ha (125 ml/ha) at 15 DAS and installation of young cotton stem slice (25 kg/500 box/ha) + Hibiscus cannabinus stem bits (25 kg/500 box/ha) + Chlorpyriphos dust 1.5 DP (2.5 kg/500box/ha) @ 30 DAS attended by earthing up @ 30 DAS recorded smallest stem weevil infestation of 13.21% that attained the yield of 1642.75 kg/ha. It was trailed by IPM module 1 (21.78%) and laborers’ practice (33.56%) with yield of 1456.25 kg/ha and 1588.25 kg/ha individually. IPM module 2 had the best mean plant survival rate (94.28%), attended by farmers' practice (88.57%) and IPM piece 1 (80.00%). Future research is necessary in the district of substitute host plants for cotton stem weevils that maybe employed as traps or intercrops for adept control techniques.
