Management of Sugarcane Stem Borer using Chemical Insecticides



 

ABSTRACT: The study was conducted to control sugarcane stem borer by using the chemical insecticides Virtako 40WG (Thiamethoxam + Chlorantraniliprole) and Cidan 4G (Cartap hydrochloride). Virtako 40 WG was applied 200 g/ ha and 300 g/ha, and Cidan 4G was applied 75 kg/ha. Findings showed that Virtako 40 WG applied in soil thrice in a season 300 g/ha followed by Virtako 40 WG applied on plants thrice in a season 200 g/ha significantly reduced the abundance of stem borer infestation. 

 

Keywords: Cidan 4G, Chilo tumidicostalis, dose, infestation, Virtako 40WG.
