Indiscriminate Use of Insecticides ● Residues accumulated in plants & plant
products● Build up of resistance among insects● Destruction of faunal diversity● Environment pollution● Health hazards to farmers and consumers● High cost of production

● Environment friendly● Targets a narrow range of pests – harmless
for other beneficial insects, birds etc.● Cost effective● Sustainable- maintain stable populations for
generations● Minimum health hazards to farmers and
consumers

● Partial replacement of agar with gelatin● Partial replacement of casein with soya flour● Brewer’s yeast with ordinary yeast● Raw wheat germ with semolina● Alphacel with filter papers● Aureomycin with Tetracycline● Wesson’s salt with salt mixture● Linseed oil with vegetable oil
Three low cost diets were formulated by replacing expensive ingredients of standard Biever & Boldt diet with locally available ingredients;

● Low cost artificial diets were developed.● C. plutellae released two weeks after transplanting
of cabbage at the rate of 1500 parasitoids/ ha/ crop -more than 70% parasitism.
● Estimated savings on insecticide usage is about Rs.100,355.00 (699.03 USD @ Rs.150.00/USD)/ ha/crop.
● Other cabbage pests - neem seed kernel extract or neem based insecticides.

Biological Insect Management Protocol for Cabbage Pests
● Release of C. plutellae 2-3 weeks after transplanting of cabbage at the rate of 1500 parasitoids/ha/crop for DBM management .
● Recommended neem seed kernel (24kg/ha) water extract or neem based insecticides to manage other insect pests.
● Protocol could be extended to other crops of Brassicaceae family.
● Useful in organic agriculture, IPM & Good Agricultural practice (GAP) programs.
