तेल ताड़ के बगीचों में लीफ वेबवर्म, एक्रिया मायरिकी (लेपिडोप्टेरा: डिप्रेसारिडे) के लिए जैव नियंत्रण एजेंट Oil palm, Elaeis guineensis Jacq.(Family: Arecaceae) is the richest source of vegetable oil with high yield levels of more than 5 tonnes of oil per ha per annum compared to other oil seeds crops that give less than 1 ton.  The productivity of the crop is often challenged by water stress, drought, biotic stresses like pests and diseases and constraints related with nutrient management. Since irrigation is given at regular intervals, the micro climate with high humidity is created, which makes congenial conditions for pests and diseases development.

तेल ताड़ का पत्ता वेबवॉर्म, एक उभरता हुआ गंभीर कीट और तेल ताड़ के बागानों में इसका प्रबंधन Oil palm (ElaeisguineensisJacquin: Arecaceae) is known to be the highest edible oil yielding perennial crop, capable of yielding 4-5 MT of palm oil and 0.4-0.5 MT palm kernel oil with good planting material, irrigation and proper management. However, the productivity is not achieved due to infestation by a wide range of fauna which include insects, birds, mites and mammals, apart from diseases, nutrient deficiencies, water stress etc. As the oil palms grow and attain tallness, the leaves of adjacent palms are overlapped, thereby preventing sunlight penetration in the plantations, a more favourable environment is...

The productivity of the palm is affected by at least 80 species of arthropods that are potential pests on oil palms. There are many insect pests viz., bagworm, leaf webworm, hairy caterpillars, grasshoppers, flea beetles, ash weevils, termites, rodents, wild boar etc. which damage the oil palm nursery and affect their normal growth and development. Superior planting material is one of the basic factors affecting the success of an oil palm plantation. Good nursery management would...

गर्म मौसम की स्थिति के दौरान तेल ताड का प्रबंधन कैसे करें?  Oil palm is a humid tropical crop which requires a very high annual rainfall of more than 2000 mm well distributed @150 mm per month. In India, very few locations receive rainfall throughout the year and it is not sure that the amount will exceed 150 mm per month or not. That is why oil palm is grown and promoted as irrigated crop in India except in few pockets of high rainfall areas. This crop requires around 150 to 200 litres of water per day per palm during juvenile phase and around 200 to 250 litres per day per palm...
