Experiment Title
|
Evaluation of biopesticides against pod borers infesting green gram (Recommendation)) |
|
Research Type
|
Departmental Research |
|
Experiment Background
|
The low productivity in green gram may be attributed to factors like limited varietal improvement, soil moisture stress, pest infestation etc., among them; ravage of insect pests is the most important. Legume pod borer, Maruca vitrata and Helicoverpa armigera contributes to a major yield loss. Though the synthetic pesticides are used to combat podborers, but their widespread use has created a variety of problems and has become a threat to human health. Further, the application of synthetic pesticides has contributed to the environmental pollution through air or as residues in food. Considering the importance of biopesticides, the experiment was proposed for the same. |
