Integrated Management Studies against Olitorius Jute Pests

Field trials with five different treatments including three IPM modules revealed that occurrence of stem weevil, gray weevil, semilooper and yellow mite were significantly low in IPM module for insect and mite pests only but did not significantly differ with the IPM module for both insect and mite pests and diseases in comparison to untreated control. However, the incidence of stem rot and root rot diseases were low in IPM module only and did not significantly differ with the IPM module for both insect & mite pests and diseases in comparison to untreated control. The maximum fiber yield was obtained in the IPM module for insect and mite pests only which did not significantly differ diseases as compared to untreated control.
