BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In recent years, the problem of pest resistance in agricultural production is a global problem and has always been a key topic of concern for agricultural science and technology workers. Further, with the continuation of the use of chemical insecticides to control pests year after year, and the increase in the use of insecticides as well as the unscientific use of insecticides and other factors, the resistance of pests is becoming more and more serious, and the types of resistant pests are increasing.
At the same time, the high-intensity use of insecticides has led to a series of problems such as excessive insecticides residues in agricultural products, pollution of the environment, and increased costs for farmers to use drugs, which is not conducive to the sustainable development of agriculture.
The long-term use of single chemical insecticides will form a directional choice for insects, pests and mites which will increase the resistance of insects, pests and mites. Moreover, due to long-term use of chemical insecticides, insects, pests and mites have become more resistant to insecticides.

The said patent application is focued on a composition in which pesticides has been mentioned from which (a) at least one pesticide in combination of (b) corn grit or mixture and (c) a binder has been utilized to control the pests in agriculture.
CN108056102A relates to an insecticidal composition containing 3-[benzoyl(methyl)amino]-N-[2-bromo-4-(1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptafluoropropan-2-yl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-2-fluorobenzamide and 4-chloro-5-ethyl-2-methyl-N-[[4-(4-methylphenoxy)phenyl]methyl]pyrazole-3-carboxamide. The said patent application is concerned with the binary composition showing its effect on rice/rice leaf roller, cabbage/bamboo moth, and eggplant/puma.
WO 2022/208504 A1 relates to the combination of active compounds comprising novaluron and at least one further active compound and to method of controlling pests applying the said combinations. The said patent application is concerned with the binary composition in particular, a pesticidal mixture containing a compound of formula I i.e. novaluron and at least one compound II selected from A.1 to A.26.
The active ingredients known from the prior arts have certain disadvantages such as insufficient control efficacy, restriction of its use due to the appearance of drug-resistant insects, pests and mites phytotoxicity and contamination to plants, or toxicity to human beings, fishes and the like.
From the above shown prior arts it is also pertinent to note that none of them shows the ternary combination of the components and its effective and synergistic approach to control insects, pests and mites as shown by the present invention.
The insecticides currently in use are not that effective; and due to their prolonged indiscriminate and non-judicious use, some pests have developed resistance to such commonly used insecticides. Their use is thereby becoming increasingly difficult.
However, insecticides with different action mechanisms can be mixed reasonably according to a certain proportion, which can improve the efficacy, reduce the dosage, fewer residues, reduce environmental pollution, and effectively reduce the drug resistance of crops against insect pests and mites.
Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new methods and formulations for controlling these harmful pests. The present inventors have surprisingly developed an effective insecticidal combination which ameliorates the aforesaid shortcomings of the prior art comprising high-efficiency, low-toxicity and environmentally-friendly insecticides which has become a mainstream direction in the field of insecticides research.

Further, the ternary insecticidal composition provides broad spectrum synergistic control i.e. grams of active ingredients required are less to achieve the desired level of control of insects-pests (caterpillars, sucking pets) and mites with one shot application. Moreover, it provides residual control i.e. longer duration of control with immediate crop protection and showcases the delay in development of resistance and effective control of hard to kill and resistant insect-pests and mites.
Furthermore, the ternary insecticidal composition increases yield of treated plants (cereals, pulses, oilseeds, fiber crop, sugar crops, leafy vegetables, tuber crops, fruit crops, flowers, ornamentals, etc). The ternary insecticidal composition increases yield due to greater number of tillers, more branches and sub branches, flowers and fruits as well as increases plant vigor and tolerance against insect-pests and mites damage.

EXAMPLES
The present invention has been described with reference to specific embodiment which is merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the invention as defined in the present complete specification.
Biological Examples:
The synergistic pesticide action of the inventive mixtures can be demonstrated by the experiments below. A synergistic effect exists wherever the action of a combination (ready-mix) or tank mix of active ingredient is greater than the sum of the action of each of the components alone. Therefore, a synergistically effective amount or an effective amount of a synergistic composition or combination is an amount that exhibits greater pesticide activity than the sum of the pesticide activities of the individual components.
In the field of agriculture, it is often understood that the term “synergy” is as defined by Colby S.R. in an article entitled “ Calculation of the synergistic and antagonistic responses of herbicide combinations” published in the journal Weeds, 1967, 15, p.20-22, incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The action expected for a given combination of two or three active components can be calculated as follows:
The objective of the present invention is to study the synergism and benefits of present compositions.

Crop : Rice
Location : Kurud, Chhattisgarh
Treatments : 20
Spray water volume : 500 liters per hectare.
Method of Application : Foliar spray with battery operated knapsack sprayer fitted with hollow cone nozzle.
Observation Methods:
Stem borer control:
The infestation by stem borer was observed as dead heart (DH) symptoms during vegetative phase and as white ear (WE) during reproductive phase. The stem borer infestation/incidence during vegetative stage recorded by counting number of dead heart (infested tiller) per hill (infested+healthy tillers). The white ear (WE) symptoms during reproductive phase recorded by counting number of white ear and productive ear per hill.
The percent DH and WE incidence calculated by using formulae described below:
Productive tiller count : Count the number of productive tillers per hill. Record observations from 10 hills per plot at the time of harvesting.

The process for preparing the ternary insecticidal composition can be modified accordingly by any person skilled in the art based on the knowledge of the manufacturing the formulation. However, all such variation and modification is still covered by the scope of present invention.
Application to the seeds is carried out before sowing, either directly on the seeds or after having pregerminated the latter. Suitable application methods include inter alia soil treatment, seed treatment, in furrow application, and foliar application. Soil treatment methods include drenching the soil, drip irrigation (drip application onto the soil), dipping roots, tubers or bulbs, or soil injection. Seed treatment techniques include seed dressing, seed coating, seed dusting, seed soaking, and seed pelleting. In furrow applications typically include the steps of making a furrow in cultivated land, seeding the furrow with seeds, applying the pesticidally active composition to the furrow, and closing the furrow. Foliar application refers to the application of the pesticidally active composition to plant foliage, e.g. through spray equipment.
The rates of application vary within wide limits and depend on the nature of the soil, the method of application, the crop plant, the pest to be controlled, the prevailing climatic conditions, and other factors governed by the method of application, the time of application and the target crop.
The present invention is suitable for use in protecting crops, plants, plant propagation materials, such as seeds, or sailor water, in which the plants are growing, from attack or infestation by animal pests. Therefore, the present invention also relates to a plant protection method, which comprises contacting crops, plants, plant propagation materials, such as seeds, or soil or water, in which the plants are growing, to be protected from attack or infestation by animal pests, with an insecticidally effective amount of the present invention.
The present invention is also suitable for use in combating or controlling animal pests. Therefore, the present invention also relates to a method of combating or controlling animal pests, which comprises contacting the animal pests, their habitat, breeding ground, or food supply, or the crops, plants, plant propagation materials, such as seeds, or soil, or the area, material or environment in which the animal pests grow, with an insecticidally effective amount of the present invention.
The lists of crops on which the insecticidal composition of the present invention is used include, but not limited to GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) and Non GMO traits, hybrids and conventional varieties of Cotton (Gossypium spp.), Paddy (Oryza sativa), Wheat (Triticum aestavum), Barley (Hordeum vulgare), Maize (Zea mays), Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor), Oat (Avena sativa), Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum), Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum), Sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris), Soybean (Glycin max), Groundnut/Peanut (Arachis hypogaea), Sunflower (Helianthus annuus), Mustard (Brassica juncea), Rape seed (Brassica napus), Sesame (Sesamum indicum), Green gram (Vigna radiata), Black gram (Vigna mungo), Chickpea (Cicer aritinum), Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata), Red gram (Cajanus cajan), French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), Indian bean (Lablab purpureus), Horse gram (Macrotyloma uniflorum), Field pea (Pisum sativum), Cluster bean (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba), Lentils (Lens culinaris), Brinjal (Solanum melongena), Cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata), Cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis), Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus), Onion (Allium cepa L.), Tomato (Solanum lycopersicun), Potato (Solanum tuberosum), Sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas), Chilli (Capsicum annum), Bell pepper (Capsicum annum), Garlic (Allium sativum), Cucumber (Cucumis sativus), Muskmelons (Cucumis melo), Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus), Bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria), Bitter gourd (Momordica charantia), Radish (Raphanus sativus), Carrot (Dacus carota subsp. sativus), Turnip (Brassica rapa rapa), Apple (Melus domestica), Banana (Musa spp.), Citrus groups (Citrus spp.), Grape (Vitis vinifera), Guava (Psidium guajava), Mango (Mangifera indica), Papaya (Carica papaya), Pineapple (Ananas comosus), Pomegranate (Punica granatum), Sapota (Manilkara zapota), Tea (Camellia sinensis), Coffea (Coffea Arabica), Turmeric (Curcuma longa), Ginger (Zingiber officinale), Cumin (Cuminum cyminum), Black Pepper (Piper nigrum), Mentha (Mentha spp.), Rose (Rosa spp.), Jasmine (Jasminum spp.), Marigold (Tagetes spp.), Common daisy (Bellis perennis), Dahlia (Dahlia hortnesis), Gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii), Carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus).
Crops are to be understood as also including those crops which have been rendered tolerant to herbicides or classes of herbicides (e.g. ALS-, GS-, EPSPS-, PPO-, ACCase- and HPPD-inhibitors) by conventional methods of breeding or by genetic engineering. An example of a crop that has been rendered tolerant to imidazolinones, e.g. imazamox, by conventional methods of breeding is Clearfield® summer rape (canola). Examples of crops that have been rendered tolerant to herbicides by genetic engineering methods include e.g. glyphosate- and glufosinate-resistant maize varieties commercially available under the trade names RoundupReady® and LibertyLink®.
Crops are also to be understood as being those which have been rendered resistant to harmful insects by genetic engineering methods, for example Bt maize (resistant to European corn borer), Bt cotton (resistant to cotton boll weevil) and also Bt potatoes (resistant to Colorado beetle). Examples of Bt maize are the Bt 176 maize hybrids of NK® (Syngenta Seeds). The Bt toxin is a protein that is formed naturally by Bacillus thuringiensis soil bacteria. Examples of toxins, or transgenic plants able to synthesise such toxins, are described in EP-A-451 878, EP-A-374 753, WO 93/07278, WO 95/34656, WO 03/052073 and EP-A-427 529. Examples of transgenic plants comprising one or more genes that code for an insecticidal resistance and express one or more toxins are KnockOut® (maize), Yield Gard® (maize), NuCOTIN33B® (cotton), Bollgard® (cotton), NewLeaf® (potatoes), NatureGard® and Protexcta®. Plant crops or seed material thereof can be both resistant to herbicides and, at the same time, resistant to insect feeding (“stacked” transgenic events). For example, seed can have the ability to express an insecticidal Cry3 protein while at the same time being tolerant to glyphosate.
Other useful plants include turf grass for example in golf-courses, lawns, parks and roadsides, or grown commercially for sod, and ornamental plants such as flowers or bushes.
