Different sampling techniques for insect population estimationDevina Seram
The document discusses different sampling techniques used to estimate insect pest populations including absolute sampling methods like quadrat sampling and capture-recapture, relative sampling methods like line transect and catch per unit time, and population index methods involving measuring insect products and plant damage. It provides details on how each sampling technique is performed and important terminology related to sampling like population, sample size, and sampling unit. The goal of using these sampling methods is to determine the pest species, distribution, changes in population over time, and monitor pest levels to control populations and recommend management practices.
Integrated Pest Management requires regular pest surveys, surveillance, and forecasting. Surveys involve collecting detailed pest population information in a given area at a particular time. Surveillance is an ongoing process to monitor pest populations and occurrences over time through methods like fixed plot surveys. This provides information on existing and new pest species, population levels, and damage. Forecasting predicts future pest infestation levels based on surveillance data and environmental factors, helping farmers time control measures appropriately. Proper pest surveys, surveillance, and forecasting are essential components of an effective IPM strategy.
Chemical pest control uses pesticides, which are chemicals that prevent, destroy, or repel pests. Pesticides are classified based on their target organisms like insects, weeds, and fungi. They also vary in their mode of action, such as contact, systemic, fumigant, and stomach poisons. Chemical pest control can effectively control pests but overuse risks developing pest resistance, eliminating natural enemies, and polluting the environment through residues in food and water contamination. Proper use of pesticides can provide agricultural benefits while minimizing disadvantages to health and ecology.

Biological control (from the ecological viewpoint) is, “the action of parasites, predators, or pathogens in maintaining another organism's population density at a lower average than would occur in their absence.”
1) Semiochemicals are chemicals that modify behavior in any way, including pheromones and allelochemicals.
2) Pheromones operate intra-specifically, meaning among members of the same species, while allelochemicals operate inter-specifically between different species.
3) Some examples of types of pheromones are aggregation pheromones which congregate members of a species, alarm pheromones which warn about danger, and sex pheromones which attract the opposite sex for reproduction.
Economical basis of IPM - Economic Thresholdskhalil amro
The document discusses key concepts in integrated pest management (IPM) theory including the economic injury level (EIL), economic threshold (ET), and tolerance levels. The EIL is the pest density that causes economic damage equal to the cost of control. The ET is slightly below the EIL to allow time for control actions before losses reach the EIL. Periodic scouting is needed to determine pest densities and understand pest-damage relationships in order to establish appropriate control thresholds. Factors like crop value, control costs, and damage coefficients are considered in EIL calculations. Limitations to EIL and ET concepts include difficulties estimating variables and incorporating external factors.

Parasitoids and Predators, their attributes.Bhumika Kapoor
Insect parasitoids have an immature life stage that develops on or within a single insect host, ultimately killing the host, hence the value of parasitoids as natural enemies. Adult parasitoids are free-living and may be predaceous. Parasitoids are often called parasites, but the term parasitoid is more technically correct. Most beneficial insect parasitoids are wasps or flies, although some rove beetles (see Predators) and other insects may have life stages that are parasitoids.
where as the Major characteristics of arthropod predators includes adults and immatures are often generalists rather than specialists, they generally are larger than their prey, they kill or consume many prey males, females, immatures, and adults may be predatory and they attack immature and adult prey.
The document discusses various ways that parasitoids can be classified, including by the stage of the host they attack (egg, larva, pupa), whether they are solitary or gregarious, and whether they are ecto-parasitoids that feed externally or endo-parasitoids that feed internally. Parasitoids can also be classified based on their host range (monophagous, polyphagous, oligophagous). The relationship between parasitoids and their hosts is a form of symbiosis in which the parasitoid lives at the expense of the host, often killing it during its own development.

This document discusses various methods for managing insect pests that infest stored grains. It notes that losses due to pests in India are around 10% but can be as high as 30-50% in other developing countries. Preventive methods include sanitation, proper stacking, and disinfestation of storage areas. Curative methods include ecological, mechanical, physical, cultural, botanical, chemical and biological controls. Specific techniques covered are controlling temperature and moisture levels, screening grains, traps, heat treatment, controlled atmospheres using gases, inert dusts, crop treatments, botanical pesticides from plants like neem, chemical pesticides like malathion and phosphine fumigation, and engineering controls.
Plant Biosecurity develops quarantine policies to protect plant health from exotic pests based on national and international obligations. The International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) aims to prevent the spread and introduction of plant pests through coordinated action. Pest Risk Analysis (PRA) identifies, assesses, and manages risks posed by quarantine pests to determine appropriate phytosanitary measures. The PRA process involves initiation, pest risk assessment, and pest risk management stages. Risk assessment evaluates the probability of entry, establishment, and spread of pests, as well as potential economic consequences. Risk management identifies, evaluates, and selects options to reduce risks to an acceptable level.
This document discusses using pheromone traps to monitor insect populations. It describes different types of traps, including passive traps that do not use lures and active traps that use lures like pheromones.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) is a pest population management system using all suitable techniques in a compatible manner to keep pest populations below an economic injury level. It was first defined in the 1960s as using both chemical and biological methods to control pests. The key concepts of IPM include understanding agroecosystems, planning crops to avoid susceptible varieties, using cost-benefit analysis and tolerance thresholds, conserving natural enemies, timing treatments based on monitoring, and gaining public understanding of management practices. IPM aims to reduce reliance on pesticides and their negative impacts on health, resistance, and the environment.
Parasitoids are insects that live on or in the body of another insect host, from which they obtain food and protection for at least part of their lifecycle. They are classified based on their developmental site in the host (ecto- vs endoparasitoid), competition among immature stages (simple, multiple, super parasitism), number developing from a single host (solitary vs gregarious), host specificity (monophagous, oligophagous, polyphagous), and trophic level (primary, secondary, tertiary parasitoids). Important agricultural parasitoids include Trichogramma spp., Chelonus blackburni, Bracon brevicornis, and

Presentation on preventive measures of weed control.pptxSudha Neupane
Weeds have been known since the ancient times. Weed are unwanted plant that grow along with the main crop in the field. Weed are considered as cumbersome for successful agriculture production. Due to crop-weed competition the crop yield losses are generally high in agriculture production. So, in order to minimize such losses farmers are practicing several weed management strategies which includes prevention, eradication, control (mechanical, cultural, biological and chemical method). The cultural methods are expensive and time consuming so, farmer have to move towards other alternative methods of weed control Varga et.al (2000). Furthermore, due to rising labor cost and non-availability of labor for manual weeding during the critical period of weed control has contributed to use of herbicides. Herbicides not only timely and effectively controls the weed but also offer a great scope for minimizing the cost of production Varga et.al (2000). Control methods are applied after the emergence of weed on the field while prevention methods of weed control are adopted before sowing the crops. Generally, there are two objectives: 1. To prevent the entry and establishment of weed species in an area.2. To prevent the spread of weed or to limit the weed build up in a field.
These objectives are referred as prevention. And any method that are applied before sowing the crop to prevent there entry , establishment and spreads comes under the prevention category. Focusing on second objective of preventive measures of weed control we can say that some cultural methods such as crop rotation or crop diversification, stale seed bed, tillage system, cover crops ( used as green manures or dead mulches),soil solarization, irrigation and drainage systems and crop residues managements can be included under preventive methods of weed control. In practice, weed management strategies should integrate indirect (preventive) methods with direct (cultural and curative) methods. The first category includes any method used before a crop is sown, while the second includes any methods applied during a crop growing cycle. Methods in both categories can influence either weed density (i.e., the number of individuals per unit area) and/or weed development (biomass production and soil cover). However, while indirect methods aim mainly to reduce the numbers of plants emerging in a crop, direct methods also aim to increase crop competitive ability against weeds.The success of prevention depends on awareness of the problem, species, effort, Co-operation, area.
•Most effective where adopted against a single species on a large area on a cooperative basis.
In conclusion we can say that farmers have several preventive methods in their arsenal that they can put together to build up a good weed management strategy. Preventive weed control is permanent weed control and usually require community action. it. For this process, a collective or joint effort and commitment is required.

This document discusses various cultural pest control methods in agriculture, including tillage, field sanitation, removal of alternate hosts, use of clean seed, selection of pest-resistant varieties, adjusting sowing times and seed rates, modifying plant spacing, fertilizer management, irrigation management, plant pruning and thinning, canopy management, crop rotation, fallowing, trap cropping, using barrier crops, mulching, mixed cropping/intercropping, using hedge rows and refuge lines, strip harvesting, modifying harvest schedules, avoiding ratooning, and using border crops. Cultural control methods aim to manipulate the crop environment to make it less suitable for pests while making it more suitable for natural enemies.
The document discusses pest, pathogen, and weed management techniques for conservation agriculture, including integrated pest management strategies and different mechanical, biological, and chemical approaches for controlling weeds such as using soil cover, hand pulling weeds, and applying herbicides in an integrated manner. Delaying weeding can significantly reduce crop yields, so the document provides steps for farmers to follow to control weeds at different stages of crop growth.
This document discusses pest management in organic farming. It emphasizes using natural methods like biological controls and cultural practices to minimize pest damage rather than chemicals. Specific biological controls are recommended for common pests of rice, cotton, sugarcane, and sorghum, including the use of resistant varieties, predators, parasites, and pathogens. The benefits of pest management in organic farming include reducing chemicals, being sustainable and environmentally friendly, and producing safe, high-quality foods.
Weeds are plants that are unwanted in a particular situation or place. They compete with crops for water, nutrients, sunlight and space, reducing crop yields by 30-90%. The top three causes of agricultural losses are weeds (45%), insects (30%) and diseases (25%). Weeds can be classified in various ways, including by morphology, physiology, habitat, origin and lifecycle. Integrated weed management aims to control weeds through prevention, eradication, and the combined use of mechanical, cultural, biological and chemical methods. While weeds are generally seen as harmful, they can also provide some benefits such as adding organic matter and nutrients to soil.

B.sc agriculture i principles of plant pathology u 5.3 principles of managementRai University
The document discusses principles of plant disease management, including avoidance, exclusion, eradication, protection, and disease resistance. Avoidance methods aim to avoid contact between pathogens and susceptible crops through proper selection of areas, fields, sowing times, varieties, and planting materials. Exclusion prevents inoculum from entering uninfected areas using seed inspection, certification, and plant quarantine regulations. Eradication reduces and destroys inoculum sources through rouging of infected plants, removal of alternate hosts, crop rotation, sanitation, and amendments to soil and fertilizers.
This document discusses various methods for controlling plant parasitic nematodes, including cultural, physical, biological, and chemical control methods.

INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT IN COTTON
1. AEN301.Pests of Field Crops and Stored
Produces and their Management (1+1)
IPM in Cotton
2. Integrated Pest management
•Integrated pest management (IPM),
also known as integrated pest control
(IPC) is a broad-based approach that
integrates practices for economic control
of pests. IPM aims to suppress pest
populations below the economic injury
level (EIL).
3. Cotton- Gossypium sp
• It is a important fiber crop in India and also high valued
commercial crop for textile industries
• India occupies the largest area in the world under cotton and
it ranks third in production. At present this crop is grown in
anArea- 12.18 million haProduction-13.73million bales
(170kgs each)
• All the 4 spices of cotton i.e.Gossypium herbaiumG.
herboriumG. hirsutumG. Barbadens are grown in India
commercially that's why India is much important in cotton
cultivation.
7. IPM strategies in cotton
• Variety traits
• Consider insect resistance or tolerance when
selecting varieties. For example, early-maturing
varieties are less exposed to late-season infestations
of pests such as tobacco budworms, bollworms,
armyworms and loopers. Additionally, some cotton
varieties provide tolerance to diseases and
nematodes, which are pests that can delay maturity
and increase susceptibility to insects.
8. Bt- transgenic varieties
• Dual-gene, Bt-transgenic cotton varieties provide better
suppression of bollworms and other caterpillar, or
lepidopteran, pests than the single-gene Bollgard
varieties did. New three-gene Bt technologies are now
entering the market that will provide even better
performance against worm pests. Additionally, the three-
gene Bt technologies will help prevent the development
of resistance in worm populations.
9. Cultural practices
• Plough deeply, clean cultivation to expose the resting pupae, crop rotation
and avoidance of ratooning reduces pest population.
• Use tolerant varieties.
• Trap cropping with crops like tomato, and destroying them when the
population is high.
• Use of maize and cowpea on borders and wild brinjal and setaria as intercrop
significantly helps in reducing the pest population.
10. • Sow the crop early.
• Use resistant varieties such as Khandwa-2 or the varieties having leaves rich
in tannin contents.
• Do not use high doses of nitrogenous fertilizers.
• Grow cowpea/onion/soybean as an intercrop in cotton to reduce early stage
pest.
• Use Okra as a trap crop.
• Adopt proper crop rotation.
11. Pest Monitoring
• Pheromone traps are useful tools for monitoring moths. It is an
important and major pest of Cotton. Pheromone Traps and Lures
10 No's per acre from 30 day crop stage for effective control of Pink
boll worm It is cheaper, simpler, easy to use and maintain. Change
lures periods every 45 days for greater efficiency.
12. Mechanical control
• Cotton is harvested in 3-4 pickings by hand as the boll mature.
• The number of pickings varies with the maturity habit of the variety.
• Cotton from damaged boll should not be kept with good quality cotton.
• Never pick wet cotton.
• On dew days, pick cotton in late mornings to avoid moisture in cotton.
13. Biological control
• Release of egg parasitoids like Trichogramma chilonisor T. brasielenis or T.
Achaea @ 150,000 /ha from 45th day onwards at 10-15 days interval (6
releases) and larval parasitoids such as Chilonus blackburni or Bracon
brevicornis or Telenomus heliothidae or Carceliaillotaor Coteria kazat or
Campoletis chloridae @ 2000 adults/ha at 15 days interval.
• . Spray HaNPV @ 250 LE/ha from 35th to 60th day of crop stage.
• Apply BtkI @ 1 kg/ha.
• Use 5% neem seed kernel extract (NSKE).
14. Chemical control
• Spray insecticides like Endosulfan35 EC or Triazophos40 EC @2.5 l/ha or
Cypermethrin10 EC @ 600-800 ml/ha.
• Avoid use of conventional sprays repeatedly. Use Neem based insecticides
like 5% Neem seed kernel extract (NSKE) and commercial Neem based
formulations @ 500-600 ml/ha, starting from 45 days age of the crop or when
ETL is reached.
• Use chemical insecticides at the time of ETL of insect is exceed.
