Emerging issues in pest management for food safety and quality of arid horticultural produce
Keywords:
crop, management, NationalAbstract
Pomegranate high valued fruit crop which was barely few hundred acres in 1960-69 has shot up roughly to 1,93,000 ha with annual production 13.46 lakh ton and productivity of 10.27 ton/ha in 2014-15 in India, which is c o n t r i b u ti n g 7 0 % o f t h e t o t a l a r e a f r o m Maharashtra(Anon.,2015).Such important fruit crop is attacked by several insect and non-insect pests as well as diseases. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt integrated pest management in pomegranate. In this context the knowledge of key pest, natural enemies, pollinators , their life cycle and scouting of pest has become important in Integrated pest management .
