Seasonal Dynamics of Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) on Maize in Himachal Pradesh
Keywords:
Fall Armyworm, SMW, Traps Catch and Plant Infestation.Abstract
Seasonal dynamics of fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda on maize was carried out at Experimental Farm, Department of Entomology and Research Farm, Department of Seed Science and Technology, CSK HPKV Palampur during kharif 2021 and 2022. Insect population initiated during 25th SMW and reached the peak level of 1.8 larvae per five infested plants in 27th SMW during 2021 and 1.6 larvae per five infested plants during 2022 in 30th and 31st SMW which declined thereafter and remained associated with crop till harvesting upto 39th SMW.Downloads
