Description

Cotton crop is known as "White gold" and is a premier commercial crop in India, which occupies only 5 per cent of the arable land and supports 60 million people having direct bearing on the country's economy. India is a unique among the cotton growing countries of the world in which four species of cotton viz, Gossypium hirsutum, G. barbadense, G. arboreum and G. herbaceum are grown commercially under diversified ecosystem. The average productivity of cotton in India is lower than Brazil, China, USA and Pakistan in the world. The major factor for low productivity of cotton in India is the fluctuation in monsoon. In addition to cultivation on marginal lands and the complexities of pest management are also important. Among the different constraints that limit the production and productivity of cotton crop in India, the insect pests are considered to be the most serious. Among the various insect pests listed above, aphid, whitefly, thrips, cotton leaf hopper or jassid and mealy bugs are the major sucking pests of cotton and limiting the profitable cultivation.
