| Abstract/Description: | The negative environmental impact of broad spectrum and highly persistent insecticides has led to a shift towards safer insecticides with novel modes of action, that include biopesticides and insecticides with mode of action other than nerve poisons. The biopesticides mainly include botanicals and microbials. These biopesticides have similar environmental impacts compared to conventional synthetic insecticides. Complete avoidance of synthetics in organic farming is a popular misconception. There is a need to evaluate the use of eco-friendly novel synthetic insecticides with newer mode of actions. The green labelled insecticides have increased toxicity towards target pests and safer to beneficial insects and environment. Novel insecticides like Spinosad and Emamectin benzoate are derived from actinomycetes. These insecticides with higher specificity and bio efficacy provide superior crop protection and serve as better alternatives in plant protection. |
