Tomato is an important vegetable crop in India. For small farmers, it is one of their key sources of revenue. However, insect pests frequently attack tomato crop, with Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) being the most notorious among them in India. The farmer communities who cultivate tomatoes use very high levels of chemical pesticide. The agro-ecosystem and human health are under danger because of the alarming rise in the chemical management of Helicoverpa. However, this practice has resulted in the creation of pests that are resistant. Consequently, there is increasing interest in creating sustainable management techniques that rely less on chemical pesticides. A thorough understanding of pest biology and dissemination demands in-depth expertise to achieve such a great aim. An integrated pest management strategy that is working to produce healthier crops and maintain a better sustainable agro-ecosystem is necessary for management of Helicoverpa. The primary objective of integrated pest management is to keep pest populations below levels that cause economic damage. The integration of suitable measures prevents the growth of the pest population. With the least amount of harm to the agro-ecosystem, integrated pest management seeks to cultivate healthy crops. 90% of fruit can be harmed by Helicoverpa, which also reduces production by 30-40%.
