“…Present findings are supported by the findings of Ahirwar et al [8] they correlated the population of mirid bug with meteorological factors and reported that maximum temperature and rainfall showed significant positive correlation with the population of pest whereas the minimum temperature and relative humidity were showed significant negative correlation with the population of mirid bug. While Neeraj et al reported that the mirid bug Nesidiocoris tenuis showed a positive correlation with morning RH, and a significantly negative one with maximum temperature and evaporation [9,10].…”

The present investigation was carried out at the experimental farm of Project Coordinating Unit Sesame and Niger (ICAR), College of Agriculture, Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwa Vidyalaya, Jabalpur (Madhya Pradesh) during summer season, 2022. The results revealed that the peak period for the incidence of whitefly and mirid bug were recorded in 19th standard week while peak period for the incidence of leafhopper was recorded in 20 standard week. The 40°C maximum and 24°C minimum temperature and 59% morning and 30% evening relative humidity were found congenial for the multiplication of whitefly and mirid bug while 41.70°C maximum and 27.60°C minimum temperature and 52% morning and 28% evening relative humidity were found congenial for the multiplication of leafhopper.

“…[2]. A number of biotic and abiotic problems currently hamper maize production.Although there are roughly 141 insect pests that impair the maize crop in varying degrees, just a dozen of them are serious enough to cause significant damage [3,4]. "Specifically, shoot fly, pink stem borer, and maize stalk borer are the insects of national importance.…”

Aim: To study the biology and morphometric parameters of different stages of fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda. Study Design: Experimental study. Place and Duration of Study: PG laboratory, Department of Entomology, College of Agriculture, Iroisemba, CAU (Central Agricultural University), Imphal, June-August 2022. Methodology: The egg masses collected from maize fields were transferred to sterilized petri plates containing maize leaves and reared under laboratory conditions (25±2°C, 70±10% RH). Duration and morphometric parameters of different stages of fall armyworm were recorded regularly. Results: The mean incubation period of eggs was observed to be 1.90 days. The larval period of six instars were recorded to be 2-4, 2-5, 2-3, 2-3, 2-3, 2-3 and 3-6 days, respectively. The mean larval length of six instars were 1.91, 3.38, 6.15, 9.78, 18.60 and 32.30 mm, respectively. The mean larval width of six instars were 0.33, 0.74, 1.31, 2.26, 2.92 and 3.53 mm, respectively. The average larval weight of six instars were 0.0031, 0.0214, 0.0420, 0.0503, 0.0576 and 0.0652 gm, respectively. The total larval duration was observed to be 16.70 days. The male and female pupal period was found to be 7.60 and 7.10 days, respectively. The average male pupal length, width and weight were 14.79±0.18 mm, 4.54±0.14 mm and 0.17±0.01 gm, respectively. The average female pupal length, width and weight were 13.0-18.20 mm, 4.0-5.2 mm and 0.18±0.01 gm, respectively. The ovipositional period was found to be 1-6 days. Mean longevity of males and females were observed to be 8.70 and 9.00 days, respectively. The total life cycle of male and female lasted 34.90 and 35.60 days, respectively. Conclusion: This study clearly provides basic information about the biology of this recently invaded pest. To prevent the potential devastating occurrence, compatible integrated pest management strategies are needed at the early stages of FAW infestation.

“…Maize is grown on 90.27 million ha in India with an output of 25.50 mt of which 9.26 million ha is in Maharashtra, with a production of 1.77 mt (Anonymous, 2020). About 141 insect species have been identified as pests of maize in India (Kumar, 2015). Amongst these, the fall army worm Spodoptera frugiperda (J E Smith) (Noctuidae) is a devastating invasive pest (Bajracharya et al, 2019).…”

In this study, Metarhizium rileyi formulation was applied using four methods and their efficacy evaluated at different concentrations against the fall army worm Spodoptera frugiperda (J E Smith) in maize. The treatment of dusting of M. rileyi 1.15 % WP @ 2.5 kg/ ha followed by spraying of M. rileyi 1.15 % WP @ 5 g/ l was found superior. It was also observed that sole spraying and dusting treatment were comparatively less effective than dusting followed by spraying. Dusting of M. rileyi 1.15 % WP @ 2.5 kg/ ha followed by spraying of M. rileyi 1.15 % WP @ 5 g/ l gave the maximum cost benefit (ICBR of 8.70) and grain yield (61.09 q/ ha).
