This book was released on 1992 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A four-year (1988 to 1991 inclusive) field and laboratory study was undertaken to determine and select the components that could be integrated to control the sorghum shoot fly, Atherigona soccata Rondani (Diptera: Muscidae), in Burkina Faso, West Africa. Nine approaches were investigated: (1) monitoring adult shoot flies; (2) sequential sampling based on egg and dead heart counting; (3) cultural practices (sowing dates and plant densities, intercropping sorghum-cowpea); (4) use of resistant cultivars; (5) use of natural insecticide from the neem tree Azadirachta indica A. Juss. (Meliaceae); (6) effects of intercropping sorghum-cowpea on the natural enemies of the shoot fly; (7) spider fauna in pure sorghum and intercropped sorghum-cowpea; (8) parasitism of the shoot fly by a larval parasitoid, Neotrichoporoides nyemitawus Rohwer; and (9) the biology of an egg parasitoid, Trichogrammatoidea simmondsi Nagaraja. These nine approaches were divided into four main components: (1) monitoring populations, (2) cultural practices, (3) natural and chemical pesticides, and (4) biological control that could be integrated to control the shoot fly. Among these components, monitoring populations (egg sampling), cultural practices, and use of natural pesticides could be utilised at the farmer level." --

Download or read book Integrated Pest Management in Diverse Cropping Systems written by Devendra Pal Singh and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-02-01 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change has intensified in recent decades, which has affected crop production as well as facilitated the emergence of new diseases and insect pests, causing serious threats to agriculture. Farmers have mostly taken a crop-based approach to insect pest management (IPM); the authors of this new volume, however, take the unique approach that IPM based on specific cropping systems is more efficient, resulting in reduced cultivation costs, increased yield and profitability, and decreased residue from crop produce and products. This volume presents the results of research done by crop protection scientists on integrated pest management in diverse cropping systems based on rice, wheat, maize, pulses, food legumes, oilseeds, groundnut, potato, and other horticulture crops. With chapters written by well-known and experienced scientists in their fields, this volume provides in-depth knowledge on integrated pest management in conjunction with an array of specific cropping systems, taking into consideration all the elements, including the crops, crop sequences, spatial and temporal aspects of managing an agricultural system, and other aspects. This volume will be valuable for entomologists, plant pathologists, and agronomists, as well as for farmers—both small and industrial sized, agricultural extension centers, faculty and students, and many others involved with crop cultivation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Field Crop Arthropod Pests of Economic Importance presents detailed descriptions of the biology and ecology of important arthropod pest of selected global field crops. Standard management options for insect pest control on crops include biological, non-chemical, and chemical approaches. However, because agricultural crops face a wide range of insect pests throughout the year, it can prove difficult to find a simple solution to insect pest control in many, if not most, cropping systems. A whole-farm or integrated pest management approach combines cultural, natural, and chemical controls to maintain insect pest populations below levels that cause economic damage to the crop. This practice requires accurate species identification and thorough knowledge of the biology and ecology of the target organism. Integration and effective use of various control components is often enhanced when the target organism is correctly identified, and its biology and ecology are known. This book provides a key resource toward that identification and understanding. Students and professionals in agronomy, insect detection and survey, and economic entomology will find the book a valuable learning aid and resource tool. Includes insect synonyms, common names, and geographic distribution Provides information on natural enemies Is thoroughly referenced for future research
