Implication

Survey reveals significant impact of lepidoptera stem borers on rice yield in Burkina Faso, suggesting better pest management strategies.

Key Points

  • Around 59.25% of farmers demonstrated good knowledge about lepidoptera stem borers and their damage.
  • Average yield losses due to these pests reached 33.33%, affecting rice production significantly.
  • Chemical control was predominant among farmers, with 64.96% in Bama and 59.25% in Karfiguéla using deltamethrin.
  • The presence of natural enemies, particularly arachnids, was noted, indicating potential for biological control strategies.
