Research and Development Plogrammes have been launched on a large scale all over the world with great amount of money and manpower which is being spent in quest of preserving our environment and to maintain better quality of life. Success of these programmes depends on the availability and accessibility of information, its proper retrieval and utilisation by all the countries. The paper emphasises need for joint cooperative efforts in this field. Efforts made in the region and India in particular in collecting information on problems of environment and areas for implementation of research results for better management and improvement of quality of life are reviewed. It brings out the fact that efforts in isolation by a nation or an organisation will not have desired effect and therefore need for coordinated cooperative efforts and mechanism for establishing a network of information systems and services alongwith suggestions for establishing new ones are discussed. The possibility of establishing an information system suitable to the local situation in India and also its links with the national and international systems in vogue by establishing a network and methodology to achieve this arc described. Efforts being made by National Environmental Engineering Research Institute and its contribution in this area have been described in length.

A field experiment was conducted at JNKVV, DHRTC farm during 2014 and 2015 to evaluate the effectiveness of eleven insecticides including untreated check against bihar hairy caterpillar, Spilosoma obliqua Walker. All the insecticides were capable of keeping the population of larvae at the minimum level and significant differences were noted among the treatments at 1, 2, 3 and 7 days after first and second spray of insecticides compared to untreated check. The treatment T4 (Flubendiamide 480 SC ) exhibited its superiority by registering the lowest larval population of 0.80 and 0.15 per meter row length during first and second spray, respectively. The overall order of effectiveness of these insecticides against S. obliqua was found to be Flubendiamide 480 SC > Indoxacarb 14.5 SC > Spinosad 45 SC > Thiodicarb 75 WP > Emmamectin benzoate 5 SG > Rynaxypyre 20 SC > Thiomethoxom 25% WG > Fipronil 5% SL > Imidacloprid 17.8 SL > Chloropyriphos 20 EC. The highest seed yield of 16.88 q/ha. was obtained in the plots treated with Flubendiamide 480 SC. The next effective treatments was Indoxacarb 14.5 SC followed by Spinosad 45 SC recorded 14.90 and 14.77 q/ha. The protection efficiency was higher being 88.27 per cent with 11.72 per cent losses in seed yield in Indoxacarb 14.5 SC. Maximum yield loss 43.72 per cent was noticed in untreated crop against 11.72 to 37.79 per cent in different insecticidal treatments.Keywords

A field experiment was conducted at JNKVV, DHRTC farm during 2014 and 2015 to evaluate the effectiveness of imidacloprid and Thiamethoxam, used as seed treatment against the sucking pests of soybean crop. In this experiment numbers of sucking pests were counted at seven days interval starting from 20 days of sowing till five weeks after first observation. The number of jassids and white flies were counted from top three and two middle leaves of randomly selected 5 plants in each plot. The whitefly population was comparatively higher than that of jassids. The overall effect of insecticidal treatments at all the six intervals on sucking pest population revealed that all the treatments were found effective in comparison to untreated check. The treatment of Imidacloprid 600 FS @ 1.50 g. a.i./kg seed followed by Imidacloprid 600 FS @ 0.75 g. a.i. /kg seed was found most effective against the early sucking pests on soybean. The treatment of Thiamethoxom 70 % WS @ 2g/kg seed was least effective against the sucking pests. All the insecticidal treatments increased the yield of soybean seed significantly over the control. The highest seed yield was obtained from the treatment of imidacloprid 600 FS @ 1.50 g. a.i./kg seed.Keywords

The incidence of whitefly was started in the fourth week of August (1.80/plants). The whitefly population reached to its peak (21.10 white fly/plants) in the last week of September (39th meteorological week). Average maximum (33.61 °C) and minimum (18.58 °C) temperature with average morning and evening relative humidity was 74.01 and 46.42 per cent, respectively, favoured the faster multiplication of white fly. The initial incidence of C. septempunctata was recorded in the last week of August and attained its peak in the last week of September. The population of C. septempunctata was influenced by the host insect as both were at peak the same time (3.50 beetles/21.10 whitefly). Positive and non-significant correlation was found between whitefly and maximum temperature (r = 0.5546) and significant positive correlation was found between minimum temperature (r = 0,2025). The relationship between the whitefly population and rainfall was also negative and non-significant (r = - 0.1636). Positive non-significant correlation was found between beetle, C. septempunctata and maximum temperature (r = 0.2620), minimum temperature (r = 0.2990).Keywords
