This document summarizes the damage symptoms caused by various insect pests that affect ginger crops. It describes 7 major insect pests: 1) Shoot borer larvae bore into ginger stems and feed internally, causing leaves to yellow and dry. 2) Rhizome scale feed on ginger rhizomes, shriveling and desiccating them. 3) Thrips feed on undersides of leaves, causing them to roll, pale, and dry. 4) Hairy caterpillars defoliate ginger and then feed on capsules, leaving only stems. 5) White grubs feed on ginger roots, causing wilting, pale leaves, and easy uprooting of plants.
