The worm produces rot in the cane, how should farmers protect their crops? Said the expert
Sugarcane producing Uttar Pradesh farmers is once again facing difficulties. As in last year, the attack on the top borer pests, which started this year’s peak-discrimination insect in the cane crop. Last year, this insect was widespread, and there was a huge decline in cane yields, which caused much damage to the farmers. UP Sugarcane Research Council Director Shukla said that the spread of top borer pests in some sugar mill areas is evident in some sugar mill.
By eating a cane gooff by sodi, it causes decay and the non -disrespectful feet start from the bottom buds. For this reason, the top of the cane is dried, called ‘Dead Heart’ and the bush structure develops in the plant, which is called ‘bunny top’.
Top bore pest looks like this
Dr. Shukla gave detailed information to farmers about the identification of the insect. He says that the female insect of this insect is similar to silver and orange hair. The females put eggs in a group of 75 to 250 eggs near the vein between the cane leaves overnight, which is covered with a brown pink material on each other. The curvature of this insect is light yellow. It reaches the upper smooth leaves of the cane through the middle vein of the leaf and eat without open leaves, causing small rounded holes such as markings on the leaves.
Sugarcane will be destroyed if not monitored
The Director of UP Sugarcane Research Council has given special advice to the sugarcane farmers to closely examine their sugarcane farms. If the other generation of eggs or heads of these insects appear on the farm, immediately break down and destroy such affected foliage. Failure to do this, the streets enter the center of the leaf and enter the cane go on and disrupt the normal growth of the cane, which causes a huge reduction in yields. The more affected plants with the help of the Qurry should be cut and destroyed with the root.
The third generation of this insect can cause greater damage, which is usually active in the third week of June. In the meantime, if the egg groups and heads are collected and destroyed, this insect cane does not enter the suvent and most of the possible damage from the next generation is avoided.
How to do the rocky?
To effectively control this insect, Dr. Shukla suggested adopting certain actions-
- If the dead heart appears in the affected plants, cut it from the field by cutting such plants from the surface of the earth and cutting it from the farm.
- For the chemical control of this dangerous insect, dissolve 1 ml of imidacloprid in one liter of water, add a little shampoo in it and spray the top of the plant. This remedy helps to destroy egg groups, keys and butterflies on the plant.
- Chlorentrandeliprol is dissolved 150 ml in 400 liters of water in 400 liters of water and drenched at the roots in the sugarcane lines in the moisture field at the rate of one acre. If this chemical is not available, Vertago or Farra can also be used.
- The method of biological control
- According to the biological control method, apply 20000 adults (4 to 5 trowcards) per hectare of egg parasite tricogram japonikam at 15 days from the last week of June. This parasite destroys the top bore eggs, causing the crop to protect the crop from the outbreak of this insect.
