1
|
Assessment of effects on yield and quality of soybeans caused by major arthropod
pests
|
PL 480
|
1969 -1975
|
The survey of insect pests of soybean, biology of important insect pests, and assessment
of losses caused by major insect pests and their control was studied during the
period of operation.
|
2
|
Studies on toxicity of modern insecticides on vegetable aphids , jassids , their
predators and parasites
|
PL 480
|
1974 - 1978
|
Different modern insecticides were screened against three species of vegetable aphids,
jassids, their predators and parasites. A very useful data has been generated
|
3
|
Evaluation of various light sources for the control of major Lepidopterous insect
pests of economic importance
|
ICAR
|
1975-1979
|
Evaluated various light sources for the control of major Lepidopterous insect pests
of economic importance
|
4
|
Integrated control of gram pod borer, Heliothis armigeraHubn.
|
ICAR
|
1979 - 1982
|
Investigations were made on the use of insecticides, cultural practices and presence
of natural enemies for the development of integrated control schedule against gram
pod borer, Heliothis armigera Hubn. A key pest of gram
|

|
AICRP on Rodent Control
|
ICAR
|
1982 -
|
Developed management strategies
|
6
|
Use of light traps in integrated management of major insect pests of pulses
|
ICAR
|
1983 - 1987
|
Developed several new designs of light traps and techniques to study migratory behaviour
in Lepidopterous species of Agro – Forestry importance. Reported first evidence
of migration inH. armigera and inter state migration of teak defoliator and
forecast model to predict H. armigera larval population
|
7
|
AICRP on Pesticide Residues
|
ICAR
|
1988 -
|
Residue analysis of various food materials
|
8
|
Studies on bio- ecology and management of pests of singhara
|
ICAR
|
1992-1995
|
Singhara beetle, Galerucella birmanica and blood worm Steno chironomus
were the major pests of singhara. Three sprayings of Monocrotophos @ 1 L / ha and
carbaryl were found to be most effective against both the pests. Studies on life
history, number of generations and the mode of carry over during off season.

9
|
Trap designing and field evaluation of light traps as IPM tool
|
ICAR
|
2000-2002
|
Fabricated four new design of light trap namely : Trap Model No. 1 JNKVV Light SM96
Trap Model No.2 JNKVV Light SM1 Trap Model No. 3 JNKVV Light SM01-1 Trap Model No.
4 JNKVV Light SM 01-2 Compared the efficacy of these traps and light sources in
farmers fields.

|
Technology development , production and Demonstration of biological pest control
agents under I.P.M.
|
DBT
|
2002-2003
|
Evaluated different doses of HaNPV againstHelicoverpa armigera and observed
that application of HaNPV @ 300LE / ha (3 sprays) gave better control of H.armigera.
Established the lab facilities and produced about 20.648 LE HaNPV for field demonstration
