“…It is important to acknowledge that a limited number of investigations have delved into the impact of beneficial microorganisms on pest management and their subsequent implications for enhancing wheat productivity. Among these studies, Pawar et al, 2023 [68] documented a notable wheat yield of 3729.02 kg/h, signifying a substantial increase of 10.30% in comparison to the control. This achievement was attributed to the utilization of Trichogramma chilonis as a biocontrol agent against wheat's borer pests.…”

Wheat is considered to be a strategic crop for achieving food security. Wherefore, one of the current objectives of today’s agriculture is to ensure a consistent and sustainable yield of this particular crop while mitigating its environmental footprint. However, along with the genetic potential of varieties, agricultural practices play a key role in ensuring a high and stable yield of wheat. Under changing climatic conditions, new eco-friendly practices were adopted in the wheat farming system in recent decades. In this review, a large number of peer-reviewed articles have been screened during the last 15 years to evaluate the potential of some environmentally friendly agricultural practices such as tillage system, biological crop protection, crop rotation, intercropping systems, and the integration of resistant varieties in achieving a high and stable wheat yield. The present investigation unveiled that embracing eco-friendly agricultural methods in the wheat farming system holds the potential to engender high and sustainable wheat yields, contingent upon a normative strategy that comprehensively addresses multiple factors. These include the intrinsic attributes of the grown wheat cultivars, plant nutritional parameters, soil agrochemical characteristics, and specific climatic conditions. Further in-depth investigations under field conditions are necessary to help in the discernment of appropriate environmentally agricultural techniques that can efficaciously optimize the yield potential of the different cultivated varieties.

“…Trichogramma species has achieved appreciable pest control success in several crop ecosystems and its role in the biological control programs is well understood (Smith, 1996;Hussain et al, 2010;Pawar et al, 2023). Trichogramma can survive in a wide range of temperature and provide successful management of lepidopteran pests in quite a lot of crops Hamed, 2008, 2011;Nadeem et al, 2009Nadeem et al, , 2010.…”

Experiments to ensure the safety of carbosulfan, to Trichogramma chilonis Ishii in terms of adult emergence and parasitization by direct spraying on egg card technique, revealed significant adverse effect on adult emergence and parasitization. The number of adult emergence ranged from 41.96 to 58.0 and, parasitization 12.62 to 32.6 per cent at 24 HAT; while it was 44.03 to 64.63 and 18.95 to 38.8 per cent respectively at 48 HAT for all the tested three doses of carbosulfan 25 EC @ 250, 500 and 1000 g a.i ha-1. Carbosulfan 25 EC @ 250 g a.i ha-1, recorded maximum adult emergence (58.00 at 24 HAT and 64.63 at 48 HAT) and maximum per cent parasitization (32.60 at 24 HAT and 38.80 at 48 HAT). Hence usage of carbosulfan 250 EC is recommended only at the low dose of 250 g a.i. ha-1.
