Effectiveness of hermetic storage in combination with botanical Ageratum conyzoides for the control of post harvest pests of maize Sitophilus oryzae (L.) and Sitotroga cerealella (Oliv.) was evaluated under artificial infestation by different packing materials. It was observed that High density polythene (HDPE) bag and Double Layered Polythene (DLP) bag with A. conyzoides are most effective in controlling S. oryzae and S. cerealella. The number of F1 progeny of S. oryzae and S. cerealella emerged in treatments ranged from 7.75 to 21.70 and 8.70 to 25.50, respectively with each mean being significantly different from each other. Both HDPE and DLP bag in combination with A. conyzoides recorded lowest adult emergence, minimum grain damage and weight loss when infested by S. oryzae and S. cerealella. HDPE bag and double layered polythene bag with A. conyzoides recorded per cent damage of 4, 5.70 and 5.0, 7.0 and minimumlosses of 0.61, 0.94 and 0.37, 0.52 by S. oryzae and S. cerealella, respectively. The results demonstrated that it is technically feasible to control post harvest pests of maize in India through enhanced hermetic storage by utilizing locally available botanicals.Keywords

Management of spotted stem borer Chilo partellus (Swinhoe) on maize (DHM 117) by insecticides with different concenterations was conducted at Maize Research Centre, Hyderabad, Telangana during Kharif 2015 and 2016. The observations based on leaf injury rating, grain yield and cost benefit ratio showed that flubendiamide 480 SC @0.1 ml followed by flubendiamide 480 SC @0.2 ml and deltamethrin 2.8 EC @ 0.8 ml/l of water proved highly effective and economical in reducing the C. partellus damage.Keywords

Fall armyworm (FAW; Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith)) is emerging as the most destructive pest of maize in India since its report in May 2018. Its rapid spread to more than 90% of maize-growing areas of diverse agro-ecologies of India within a span of 16 months presents a major challenge to smallholder maize farmers, maize-based industry, as well as food and nutritional security. FAW has been reported from other crops as well like sorghum and millets with varied proportion of economic damage. In this review, the transboundary movement of FAW, role of ecology, its spread and damage are discussed. Management of FAW by developing and deploying various pest management tools is elaborated. The role of agro-ecological measures for reducing FAW damage with African experiences has also been highlighted.Keywords
