Key Points
Enhanced diatomaceous earth significantly reduces Rhyzopertha dominica infestation in stored maize hybrids, improving protection.
Pest control assessment showed a reduction in insect counts up to 75% when enhanced diatomaceous earth was applied.
Observational analysis on stored maize hybrids evaluated pest resistance capabilities over a three-month period.
May enable more effective and eco-friendly pest management strategies for maize storage, benefiting farmers.
