Impact of Inoculative Releases of Trichogramma chilonis for Helicoverpa armigera and Hippodamia variegata for Myzus persicae in Ecologically Engineered Tomato Ecosystem of Kashmir
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Field experiments were conducted to determine the impact of inoculative releases of two natural enemies, Trichogramma chilonis and Helicoverpa armigera Myzus persicae Hippodamia variegata for the suppression of , respectively in ecological engineering practiced and tomato field of Kashmir.The application of @150, 000 per ha significantly reduced population (90.0 %) as compared to T. chilonis H. armigera the only ecological engineering practiced field (62.46%).@ 25,000/ha significantly suppressed population with a H. variegata M. persicae reduction of 90.38% as compared to the only ecological engineering practiced field (60.64%).The study indicate that @150, 000/ha T. chilonis and @ 25,000/ha significantly managed the population of and , respectively in ecological engineering H. variegata H. armigera M. persicae practiced tomato field helps in avoidance of pesticidal applications.
