Repelling performance of different umbellifer crop in reducing brinjal shoot and fruit borer infestation on brinjal
Abstract :Repelling performance of some selected umbellifer crop
in reducing BSFB infestation on brinjal was studied during 2004-2005 at the
experimental farm of Bangabandhu Shiekh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University,
Gazipur. It was observed that all the repellent crop reduce shoot fruit
infestation. Significantly lowest number of shoot and fruit infestation
(2.56%,34.65%)) was found when brinjal grown with soluk (Peucedanum graveolens). Generally a higher number of spider (1.59)
and lady bird beetle (4.55) were found in crop association with umbellifer in
comparison to brinjal monoculture.
