Description Evaluation on ecofriendly techniques in sorghum with respect to management and
their safety to natural enemies against shootfly, Atherigona soccata Randani were carried out
under field conditions at MARS, Dharwad during 2004-05.
Reaction of different genotypes against the pest indicated that CSH-18 and SPHHHHH
recorded least number of eggs and per cent dead hearts. SPH-1479 recorded highest
grain yield and CSH-18 recorded highest test weight.
Among plant products, NSKE (5%) alone recorded least number of eggs (0.60/plant),
per cent deadheart (25.93%) and highest grain yield (13.22 q/ha) and was found safe to
natural enemies.
NSKE (5%) in combination with (3%) panchagavya was found effective against
shootfly by recording least eggs (0.47/plant), per cent deadheart (21.08%) and more grain
yield (14.16 q/ha). However, it was also found safe to natural enemies.
Among different indigenous technologies evaluated GCK (5%) recorded least eggs
(0.83/plant), per cent deadhearts (27.68%) and higher grain yield (12.78 q/ha). But
vermiwash conserved highest natural enemies population.
Investigations on different organic treatments evaluated that Azospirillum was found
superior in reducing eggs (1.47/plant), per cent deadhearts (31.62%) and higher grain yield
(11.20 q/ha), test weight (26.84 g) and fodder yield (4.34 t/ha).
Evaluation of different traps indicated that fish meal + monocrotophos, fish meal +
dichlorovos were recorded least number of eggs (1.13, 1.20/plant, respectively), deadhearts
(40.91%, 44.44%, respectively) as compared to fish meal alone and control plots.
