Monitoring of Selective Pest Fall Armyworm (Spodoptera Frugiperda),Corn Earworm (Helicoverpa Armigera), Corn Leafhopper (Dalbulus Maidis) Occurence in The Maize Crop (Zea Mays).

Key Points

To monitor the occurrence of major insect pests affecting maize production.
Field monitoring of pest populations in maize crops.
Identification of pests in different growth stages of maize.
Assessment of damage caused by pests on maize yield and quality.
Fall armyworm, corn earworm, and corn leafhopper are prevalent pests in maize crops.
Pests cause significant damage, leading to reduced yields and poor grain quality.

Abstract

Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most important cereal crops cultivated worldwide for food, feed, and industrial purposes. However, its production is significantly affected by various insect pests at different growth stages. Major pests of maize include the Fall armyworm, Corn earworm, corn leafhopper, stem borers such as leafhoppers. These pests cause damage by feeding on leaves, stems, tassels, and ears, leading to reduced yield and poor grain quality.
