Effect of detrashing, removal of primary infested cane and Cidan 4G on management of sugarcane stem borer



 

ABSTRACT: The study was conducted following cultural practices such as detrashing at 15, 30, 45 and 60 days intervals, infested cane removal and application of chemical insecticide namely Cidan 4G @ 3.0 kg ha-1 to control sugarcane stem borer under field conditions during 2013-2014 at Bangladesh Sugarcrop Research farm, Ishurdi, Pabna. All the cultural practices and insecticide treatment revealed significantly the lower level of infestation and higher level of yield compared to control (untreated). Among the treatments, Cidan 4G @ 3.0 kg ha-1 showed significantly the lowest level of infestation and resulted the highest yield.
