INSECT PESTS OF SUGARCANE
Subject: Pests of crop and stored grain and their Management
2. INTRODUCTION
There are approximately 288 insects that infest
sugarcane of which about 24 of them cause heavy
losses in quality as well as in quantity.
Long growth duration that sugarcane crop needs, it
is extremely vulnerable to insect pests, some
estimates suggest that 20.0% is the actual decline
in production due to pests.

16. Insecticide and
formulation
Dosage Method and time of
application
SHOOT BORER
Chlorpyrifos 20EC 1kg a.i ha -1 (5 litre) Soil drenching at planting
and if need be at 45 days
after planting.
Cypermethrin10%
EC
260-304 ml in 200-
280 l of water/acre
Sprayed around the base of
plants at 30days and if need
be at 60days after planting.
Fipronil 5%SC 1500-2000 ml/ha Properly sprayed on crop
canopy as well as basal part
of the plant after 30-45 days
of planting
NSKE 5 % 25 Kg/ha Sprayed on soil as well as on
crop to prevent larval feeding
17. TOP BORER
Carbofuran 3 G or
Phorate 10 G
1 kg a.i./ha (33 kg)
or
3 kg a.i./ha (30 kg)
Soil application during last
week of June or first week of
July against third brood of
the pest in sub-tropical India.
INTER NODE BORER
Monocrotophos 36
SL
3 kg a.i./ha (7.5 lit.)
Both foliar and Soil
application during July-
August.

18. Workers attack the
newly planted setts and
affect germination.
They enter through cut ends of
setts & feed on the soft tissue.
The tunnel is filled with the soil.
The termites attack setts, shoots,
canes and also stubbles
Entire shoot dries up and can
be pulled out easily
SYMPTOMS OF DAMAGE
19. The use of partially decomposed manure should be
avoided
Locate and destroy the termite colony near by field
Irrigation water with crude oil emulsion.
The removal of decaying organic matters cow dung,
wood or dry stubbles from the field.
Setts treatment with Imidacloprid (0.1%) or
Chlorpyriphos 20 EC 0.04 % for 5 min.
Application of well rotten Neem cake manure @ 60
Cartloads/ ha.
Spray Chlorpyriphos 20%EC 750 ml/ha
IPM strategy for Termite
20. Scientific name: Pyrilla perpusilla
Family: Lophopidae
Order: Hemiptera)
Distribution and status: India, Pakistan
Host range: Sugarcane, wheat, barley, oats, maize,
sorghum, baru, guinea grass and sudan grass
21. Bionomics
The adults lay 300 - 536 eggs in clusters on the underside
of leaves.
Egg period 8 - 28 days.
Nymphal period: 30-40 days.
Pupal period 2 - 6 months.
Adult live for about 2 - 5 months.
3- 4 generations are completed in a year.
22. Pale greenish yellow eggs in clusters
Eggs are laid on the underside of leaves,
covered over with a white filamentous
waxy material secreted by the female
Newly hatched nymphs are milky
white in color
They posses a characteristic feather
like processes covered by wax
Adults are straw coloured with wings
folded like a roof on the back
Head is prominently drawn forward as
a sort of rostrum.

23. SYMPTOMS OF DAMAGE
Adults and the nymphs suck leaf
sap from the under surface of the
lower leaves.
Leaves become yellow, top
leaves get dried up and lateral
buds germinate
Hoppers exude honeydew, result
the leaves are completely covered
by the sooty mould. This affects
photosynthesis.
Black sooty
mould
Yellowing in
leaf
24. Burn trashes after harvesting canes
Remove lower leaves bearing egg cluster.
Ratooning should be avoided
Balance Nitrogen should be applied.
Dust malathion 5% @ 40kg/ha. or
Spray malathion 50 EC @ 1.25kga.i./ha.
Release of 8,000-12,000 cocoons or 3.2 to 4
lakh eggs of Epiricania melanoleuca per ha.
during July-August
Use Metarhizium anisopliae (fungal pathogen)
IPM strategy for Pyrilla
E. melanoleuca
25. Nymphs and adults feed by sucking
the juice and cause shrivelling up
and stunting of canes.
Nodal region is more infested than
internodal region.
Infested crop losses its vigour, canes
shrivel, non-opening of leaves &
ultimately cane dries up
Such canes when slit open appear
brownish red
SYMPTOMS OF DAMAGE
Node
Melanaspis glomerata (Diaspididae:
Hemiptera)
26. Stripping of cane leaves may minimize attack
Select and plant the scale insect free setts
Avoid water stagnation for the longer period
Detrash the crop at 150th and 210th day of planting.
Give hot water treatment before planting
Presoak the setts in 0.1% solution Malathion 50 EC
Spray 1.25 litres of Malathion 50 EC or 2 litres of
Di-methoate 30 EC in 1250 litres of water per ha
Spray methyl demeton 25 EC @ 2ml/lit of water
IPM strategy for Sugarcane Scale
27. S. N. : Saccharicoccus sacchari
Family: Pseudococcidae:
Order: Hemiptera
Distribution and status: Sugarcane growing areas
Host range: Sugarcane, reeds and some grasses
28. SYMPTOMS OF DAMAGE
Pinkish oval insects beneath leaf
sheath & on the nodes, with whitish
waxy coating.
Nymph and adult suck juice from cane in group
& reduces vigour of the plant
It also attack roots
Honey dew secretion leads to development of
Sooty mould which gives blackish appearance
to canes.
29. IPM strategy for Sugarcane Mealy bug
Use resistant varieties like CO 439, CO 443, CO 720, CO 730
Drain excess water from the field
Detrash the crop on 150 and 210 Days After Planting.
Apply methyl parathion 50 EC 1000 ml.
Rubbing of setts with gunny bag pieces dipped in Malathion
(0.1% solution.)
