| Abstract | The bio-suppression of sugarcane leaf hopper, Pyrilla perpusilla Walker during epidemics in 2007 by its potential nymphal and adult ecto-parasitoid, Epiricania melanoleuca Fletcher in command area of three sugar mills of Uttar Pradesh covering an area of approximately 40,000 ha with commendable success could serve as a model for pest management in other areas also. The sugarcane Pyrilla, which initially appeared on wheat, fodder sorghum, barley and grown up sugarcane, later migrated to autumn, spring plant and ratoon during March-April. The over wintering population of nymphs survived to a great extent due to mild winter which favored the fast multiplication of nymphs into adults. These nymphs developed into adults during March and started breeding profusely and caused the havoc. The population of Pyrilla and its parasitoid was assessed during rapid roving survey. The leaves bearing parasitoids were redistributed in sugarcane fields @ 5000 cocoons + 5 lacs eggs/ha or 10000 cocoons/ha in absence of eggs of Epiricania. The E. melanoleuca played a major role to control the Pyrilla population. The insecticidal spraying operation, which was not recommended, resulted in a saving of about Rs.1600/ha besides avoiding environmental pollution. The splendid control of the Pyrilla epidemic has once again proved that conservation of natural enemies and augmentation through field redistribution could be effective components in bio-suppression of Pyrilla. Hence, it is inferred that if ecto-parasitoid Epiricania melanoleuca cocoon is available in field @1–5/leaf at Pyrilla population level ranging from 20 to 150 nymphs+adults/leaf, the insecticides should not be sprayed at all. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
