Abstract

IPM module with timely sowing of the crop, seed treatment with carbendazim @ 2 g/kg seed, field application of fungal biocontrol agent Trichoderma viride @ 1 kg/acre (as soil application), mechanical removal of aphid infested twigs at the initial stage of attack and three inoculative releases of aphid predator, Chrysoperla carnea larvae was validated at farmers field for the management of pests and diseases. IPM module reduced the pest attack on the crop and gave higher yield as compared to untreated plots.
