Abstract

A field experiment was conducted at the experimental farm of Department of Entomology, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani during Kharif 2013 to evaluate the bio-efficacy of neonicotenoids against sucking pests of Bt cotton. The results revealed that significantly lowest population of sucking pests per three leaves was recorded in nitenpyram 10 per cent WSG @ 100 g a.i./ha, dinotefuran 20 per cent SG @ 50 g a.i./ha and clothianidin 50 per cent WDG @ 20 g a.i./ha were the most effective treatments in reducing incidence of sucking pests on Bt cotton as compared to acetamiprid 20 per cent SP @ 20 g a.i./ha, imidacloprid 17.8 SL, thiamethoxam 25 per cent WS @ 25 g a.i./ha and thiacloprid 21.7 per cent SC @ 30 g a.i./ha.

Abstract

The present study was conducted in Nanded district with a view to study the personal, socioeconomic and psychological characteristics and to know the mode of organization of training programme as preferred by the sweet orange growers. A majority of sweet orange growers were educated upto primary education, had medium (4.01 to 10.00 ha) land holding, medium annual income and also had medium risk preference, market orientation and economic motivation. Most of the respondents had medium 16 to 37 years of experience of farming, with medium social participation, and had medium use of sources of information and extension contact. Most of the sweet orange growers preferred training of one week period at their own villages particularly in summer season. So organizers of training pogrammes may give emphasis on these preferences while conducting training programmes.

Abstract

Abiotic factors viz., temperature, rainfall, humidity etc. affect the incidence of insect pest population. The effects of weather parameters on incidence of sucking pests of Bt cotton was studied during Kharif 2013 at Department of Agricultural Entomology, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani (MS). The weather parameter studied regarding sucking pests of Bt cotton concluded that aphid, jassid and whitefly showed positively significant correlation with maximum temperature. Whereas, jassids and thrips showed negatively significance with relative humidity and rainfall.
