Overview

Review highlights the effectiveness of push-pull strategies in managing pests in pulses and oilseed crops, indicating a sustainable approach.

Key Points

  • The push-pull strategy effectively reduces pest pressure in cropping systems like pulses and oilseeds, enhancing sustainability.
  • Utilizing repellent and attractant stimuli, the approach directs pests away from main crops, increasing yield and health safety.
  • The mechanism relies on semiochemicals that modify insect behaviour, ensuring minimal pesticide usage and environmental safety.
  • This overview underscores the practical application and relevance of push-pull strategies in integrated pest management practices.
