Use bacteria for pest control such as Beauveria Bassiana. 

CHEMICAL CONTROL :- 

Use of chemicals for thrips control. 

Chemical are are only used if infestation becomes very high. 

Use of chemicals such as :- 

  1. Acephate 95% sg
  2. Acetamiprid 20% sp
  3. Buprofezin 25% sc
  4. Carbofuran 0.3% sc
  5. Diafenthiuron 47.80% sc
  6. Diafenthiuron 50% wp
  7. Fipronil 0.5% sc
  8. Fipronil 80% wg
  9. Broflanilide 300g/l sc
  10. Broflanilide 20% sc
  11. Carbosulfan 25% ec
  12. Carbosulfan 25% ds
  13. Clothianidin 50% wdg
  14. Cyantraniliprole 10.26% od
  15. Cypermethrin 25% ec
  16. Deltamethrin 11% w/wec
  17. Dimethoate 30% ec

Importance Of Silicon fertilizer In Agriculture

  Benefits of silicon | beneficial effects of silicon (si) in agricultural crops :- WATCH NOW Leaf erectness :- Silicon give cell wall rigidity and Max Live erect due to this sunlight reaches all areas to the plant that make them to do more photosynthesis properly that's make more growth and higher yield.  Counteracts negative effect of high nitrogen supply :- Silicon contracts negative effect of high nitrogen supply, due to high nitrogen application there is high vegetative growth of plants and plant becomes very heavy then plant lodging occurs ( mainly in rice) and also disease and pest attack becomes high when nitrogen fertilizer ( mainly urea) are high, so silicon stops the uptake of nitrogen when there is no need in plant. Resistance to disease and pest:-  1.Produse more Lignin so that fungal infections are less.  2. Make a very thin Silicon layer into the leaf epidermal cell so that leaves become harder and pest can't sucks the SAP through injecting their mouth...
