Silicon alleviates resurgence inducing tendency of insecticide against white backed planthopper, Sogatella furcifera (Horvath) in rice

Author(s):
S Panda and Raghunandan H
Abstract:
Field testing of insecticides like dinotefuran 20 SG, buprofezin 25 SL, their combination (Dinotefuran and buprofezin) 58 WDG and acephate 75 SP sprayed at 30 and 50 days after transplanting at recommended doses either alone or in combination with basal soil application of a silicate fertilizer, diatomaceous earth (DAE) at 300 kg/ha proved their additive effects on Sogatella furcifera population and rice grain yield. Acephate sprays resulted in resurgence of hopper with 128% increase in population over control, which was effectively contained by combined use of DAE resulting in 58.0% decline in hopper and 43.8% increase in grain yield.
