The status of cut worm Agrotis ipsilon Hufnagel was studied in district Baramulla and its incidence was monitored in maize crop at the field of Faculty of Agriculture, Wadura, SKUAST-Kashmir during 2018. The incidence was observed at weekly intervals and was found to be infesting maize starting from germination to maturity. The results revealed maximum incidence and damage (74.24± 0.89%) at low altitude followed by medium (58.07± 1.87%); while the least was at high altitude (36.27± 0.78%). The larvae started occurring from 20th standard week (SW), reached its peak on 25th SW and then started decreasing from 26th SW. Incidence revealed a positive and significant correlation (r=0.634) with maximum temperature.Keywords
