It showed a powerful correlation between leafhoppers and maximum hotness (r=0.48) and a substantial equating between minimum temperature (r=-0.59) and the eve relative humidity (r=-0.56). and precipitation (r=-0.60). Thrips and rainfall have a negative significant union (r=-0.65). Semilooper and maximum temperature have a helpful connection (r=0.17). Spodoptera litura has a positive important link with maximum hotness (r=0.24), but a negative significant relationship accompanying maximum temperature (r=-0.49) and minimum hotness (r=-0.55).
