ABSTRACT
Sugarcane is an important crop in Pakistan and this crop usually affected by insect pest. Among these insect pests in sugarcane, borers are very dangerous, (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) whereas Trichogramma chilonis Ishii. (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) is prominent egg parasitoid utilized for the purpose of borers attack in IPM. This research was carried-out for the purpose of success various issuance of T.chilions in case of sugarcane insect attacks and observe the decay rate of sugarcane borers and such as control issuance by T. chilonis egg cards. The borers’ generation emerges out after 27 days, trichogramma cards T. chillions were installed with the duration after 10, 15, 20, days interval repeated and to check out infestation of sugar cane borers. The research shows that results of installed crop was excellent minimum borer attack as compared to less installed trichogramma card. More treated with trichogramma card about 60000 parasitoids eggs /acre at interval after 20 days repeat from May to August. While borers complete their life cycle 30-35 days. This study shows that treated with biological control plot significantly decrease borers infestation as contrast to the less tricho gramma card used. It is very cheap and fully control as well as co-friendly, no effect on the crop stress as compared to the pesticides application. To increase the quality about 0.2-0.5 in sugarcane recovery and more than 150 -200 mound per acre increases due to application of trichogramma cards. Whole minimum to high amount of trichogramma cards T3 600000 parasitoids eggs/acre growth was 42.07 note max high yield 35.51 ton/ha and more brix 20.1 were seen. The results showed that T. chilonis eggs card is successful and inexpensive and environmental safe recruitment for complete dominating over sugarcane borers.
