Abstract The present investigation was based on the management of Yellow stem borer which is a major pest of Basmati rice crop in India. All the treatments were applied to control this pest when it reached on its ETL level. The data recorded one day before of first spray and 3, 7, 10 days after of each spray. The observation revealed that all the treatments were found significantly superior over untreated control. Among the all treatments Fipronil 5 SC was found most effective followed by Imidacloprid 17.8 SC, Cartap hydrochlorid 4 G. Among the bio-pesticides B. bassiana was most effective after the chemical pesticides followed by M. anisopliae and V. lacani. The field treated with fipronil 5 SC produced the highest grain yield (38.35 q/ha) and Imidacloprid 17.8 SC was placed on second place with 37.26 q/ha grain yield followed by Thiamethoxam 25 WG (36.05q/ha) and Cartap hydrochloride 4G (33.87 q/ha).

Major Pest

Rice yellow stem borer, Scirpophaga incertulas (Walker) (Pyralidae: Lepidoptera) is the major pest of rice that causes extensive damage to the crop and its infestation is more severe in summer rice. Field experiment for two consecutive seasons (summer 2014 and 2015) at Bhadrak, Odisha (India) was carried out to assess the relative efficacy of some modules pest management against yellow stem borer and leaf folder in rice. The pest management module comprising of nursery treatment with fipronil 03 G @ 100 g/ cent nursery area at 7 days before transplanting, clipping of leaf tips at transplanting, installation of pheromone traps for mass trapping @ 50/ ha, soil application of chlorantraniliprole 0.4 G @ 10 kg/ ha at 30 DAT and foliar spray of indoxacarb 14.5 SC @500 ml/ ha at 60 DAT minimised the stem borer damage substantially (76.40 and 76.15 % reduction of dead heart and white ear head, respectively over control) and contributed to the highest grain yield ( 42.86 % increase over control) with maximum net return (Rs. 19899.05 per hectare) and B :C ratio (1.46). The current pest management module also reduced the infestation level of leaf folder in rice (60.72 % reduction over the untreated control).

The present investigation was carried out to study the “Eco friendly management of yellow stem borer, Scirpophaga incertulas (Walker) on paddy in western plain zone of Uttar Pradesh” in randomized block design with three replications and seven treatments at Crop Research Center, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture and Technology, Meerut. The yellow stem borer, S. incertulas (Walker) was recorded as major pest. The incidence of S. incertulas (Walker) was recorded on the incidence of yellow stem borer Scirpophaga incertulas (Walker) showed that it was recorded on 26th standard week for the first time and continued till second week of November i.e. 46th standard week. The infestation of stem borer recorded as dead heart/ white ear head ranged from 0.85 to 15.25 per cent during the crop season i.e. Kharif 2017 and positive correlated with all the other weather parameters.

The present investigation was carried out to study the efficacy of different novel insecticides and bio-pesticides against stem borer Scirpophaga incertulus (Walker) during kharif 2015-16 at Crop Research Centre of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture and Technology, Meerut. Efficacy of newer insecticides (fipronil 5 SC, cartap hydrochloride 50SP,chlorpyriphos 20 EC, imidacloprid), one biopesticide (Neemarin 1500 ppm) and one bio-control agent (Trichogramma japonicum) were evaluated against yellow stem borer Scirpophaga incertulas (Walk.) in Basmati rice. The stem borer recorded as dead heart ear heads ranged from 4.85 to 10.55 per cent and white ear head showed that it was recorded on 38th standard weak. All the treatments were found significantly effective in reducing the infestation of stem borer and increasing the yield compared with control. Application of fipronil 5 SC was the most effective treatment in reducing the stem borer infestation at all observational interval resulting highest grain yield The results of paddy yield depicted in table 3, showed that the plots treated with fipronil 0.3 GR @ 25 kg/ha gave the highest yield (45.56 q/ha).

AbstractA commercially-available, hand-applied PVC resin formulation of the sex pheromone of the striped rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis (Walker) was used to control the yellow stem borer, Scirpophaga incertulas (Walker), in a 20 ha mating disruption trial in West Bengal, India, in 1992. Indirect measures of mating disruption were used to compare the pheromone-treated plot with an untreated control plot and a farmers' practice plot where a conventional pesticide control regime was practised. The results showed that the level of ‘white head’ damage in the pheromone-treated plot was significantly lower than that recorded in other treatment plots and that the relative percentage of the larvae of the two major stem borer species, S. incertulas and Chilo polychrysa (Meyrick) found in the region changed from 88% S. incertulas in the farmers' practice plot to 65% in the pheromone-treated plot. The yields of grain and straw recorded in the pheromone-treated plot were significantly higher than in the untreated control plot but not significantly different from those recorded in the farmers' practice plot.

Experiments were carried out to assess some insecticide modules against major insect pests of rice. Each module consists of a basal application of carbofuran 3G @ 1 kg a.i ha-1 at 20 DAT and Rynaxypyr 20 SC @ 30 g a.i ha-1 at 45 DAT except untreated control. All modules differ with each other only in third treatment which was applied in 65 DAT. The third treatment includes: Imidacloprid 17.8 SL @ 27 g a.i ha-1, Pymetrozine 50 WG @ 150 g a.i ha-1, Triflumezopyrim 106 SC @ 27 g a.i ha-1, Buprofezin 25 SC @ 250 g a.i ha-1; Glamore (Imidacloprid 40+Ethiprole 40% w/w) 80 WG @ 100 g a.i. ha-1, Thiacloprid 24 SC @ 60 g a.i ha-1, Azadirachtin 0.03 EC @ 8 g a.i ha-1, Dinotefuran 20 SG@ 40 g a.i ha-1 and untreated control. All the treated plots recorded significantly lower percent of dead heart, white ear- head caused by stem borer and silver shoot caused by gall midge. Module with Pymetrozine 50 WG @ 150 g a.i ha-1 treated plot recorded significantly higher per cent reduction of plant hoppers (>80% over untreated control) and produced higher grain yield (50.75 qha-1) than the other modules. Among the different treated modules the maximum number of spiders was found in Azadirachtin 0.03 EC @ 8 g a.i ha-1 treated module plot followed by other treatments.

Natural Parasitism

Three species of parasitoids viz., Telenomus dignus Gahan, Trichogramma japonicum, Ishii and Tetrastichus schoenobii Ferriere were recorded from the egg masses of rice yellow stem borer, Scirpophaga incertulas (Walker) in a field study. The extent of parasitism was high during Rabi (43.33 – 93.33 %) and low during Kharif (0 - 40.00 %). Parasitism by T. dignus was maximum in October (50.00 %), T. japonicum, in November (23.08 %) and T. schoenobii in February (55.55 %). dignus and T. schoenobii in combination parasitized maximum number of egg masses (41.82 %). Multiple parasitism by the three species was high in December (8.33 %) and January (7.14%). Parasitic potential was maximum, when T. schoenobii alone parasitised the egg masses followed by T. dignus and T. schoenobii in combination. Host density in the field influenced the extent of parasitism.
