Title: Annual Meeting of Indian Phytopathological Society (North Zone)& National Symposium On Crop Protection through Bio-rational approaches- Current trends and future perspective


Date: March 10, 2022

THEME OF THE SYMPOSIUM

Over the years, there has been tremendous shift in pest management strategies due to growing concern on account of adverse effect of crop protection chemicals on biodiversity, environment, human beings as well as live stocks. Consequently, emphasis has shifted from use of chemical pesticides to environment friendly bio-rational based pest management practices with major emphasis on plant products and microbe based pesticides. A large number of crop protection scientists throughout the world are involved in search of effective, cost efficient viable tools which are nowadays incorporated in crop pest management strategies. Under such situation it becomes very important to know shift in pests’ dynamics and devise effective management strategies that can work under wider climatic conditions. Pesticides are common tool for managing plant pests but are hazardous to human health, live stocks and environment. Other pests’ management practices may be useful for specific pests, such as removal of infected plant materials, use of biocontrol agents or use of certified seed to avoid introduction of pests. The combination of current maps and future climatic conditions with models of pests’ risk and management under ecofriendly agricultural practices explored to be adapted. The major thrust areas of plant protection are promotion of Integrated Pest Management, ensuring availability of safe and quality pesticides for sustaining crop production from the ravages of pests.

The present symposium will address some of these emerging issues related to Crop Protection through bio-rational approaches in order to develop guidelines for future research especially under the perspective of agriculture, horticulture, vegetables etc.
