The study examines chemical use in vegetable production among farmers in Shika And Giwa Local Government area of Kaduna State with a view of highlighting the Side effects of these chemicals if not properly handled. Data were collected through interview schedule on 100 randomly selected vegetables farmers and analyzed using descriptive statistics. The findings revealed that majority of the farmers spray their crops with different chemicals to control insect and pest infestation. It was found that most of the farmers were oblivious of the harmful effect of pesticides/herbicides if not properly a

Abstract:
The traditional method for controlling pests is the application of chemical pesticides. Growing concern on the negative effects of chemicals has encouraged the development of alternatives. Inundatively and inoculatively applied microbial control agents (virus, bacteria, fungi, and entomopathogenic nematodes) have been developed as alternative control methods of a wide variety of pests. A mathematical model for microbial control of pests is formulated in this paper. The dynamical characteristics of the system are studied. The role of time-delay has been discussed.

Pest and plant diseases cause damages and economic losses, threatening food security and ecosystem services. Thus, proper pest management is indispensable to mitigate the risk of losses. The risk of environmental hazards induced by toxic chemicals alongside the rapid development of chemical resistance by insects entails more resilient, sustainable, and ecologically sound approaches to chemical methods of control.

Pesticides are the primary control method despite genetic resistance, questionable efficacy, and negative effects upon the environment. The sterile insect technique (SIT) is an ecofriendly alternative, that suppresses the reproduction of wild Medfly by the mass release of sterilised males. Currently, males are sterilised by irradiation, which frequently reduces the ability of males to court females and thereby suppress reproduction. To address these undesirable effects, we de

Abstract:
The walnut orchard industry in the Republic of Moldova faces significant threats from the pest Zeuzera pyrina, which can drastically reduce crop yield and quality. This study investigates the monitoring and management of this pest in a 1.5 hectare walnut orchard, analyzing its impact on tree health and developing effective control methods. Population monitoring was conducted using pheromone traps and visual inspections, revealing significant fluctuations influenced by weather conditions. Z. pyrina poses a considerable risk by damaging the tree structure. The study emphasizes the necessity of i

Abstract:
The purpose of this work was to highlight one of the ecological methods of seasonal monitoring of the population density of the pest cotton bollworm, Heliothis armigera Hbn. (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) on corn. In recent years, this pest is a particularly acute problem in the agroecosystem plantati-ons of agricultural crops. The larvae of this pest cause essential damage to a wide spectrum of agricultural plants, including the corn, which in the Republic of Moldova is the part of the economically important crops. To protect the harvest, a wide spectrum of pesticides is appli-ed and about 3-4 chem

Abstract:
Phytophagous insects respond to chemicals from their host plants in a number of ways, including orientation or attraction in response to volatiles produced by plants. Orientation to odors from host plants may occur in order to locate food, mates, or oviposition sites. A detailed understanding of these behaviors are the chemical stimuli evoking them may provide useful means for attracting and trapping insect pests of crop plants. Heliothine moths (Helicoverpa and Heliothis herein) include a number of major pests of cultivated crop plants throughout the world. In North America, these include Hel

Abstract:
The extensive use or non-specific, hazardous, chemical insecticides demands the development of "healthier" alternative means for pest control. Insect-specific, baculoviruses expressing anti-insect toxin genes (from mites or scorpions) demonstrated in laboratory assays and field trials enhanced insecticidal activity and provided some protection from lepidopterous larvae to agricultural plantations. To utilize recombinant baculoviruses as commercial biopesticides in row crop agriculture, further increase in their speed of kill should be achieved and the reduction in crop damage should be compara

Abstract:
Pear-feeding psyllids in the genus Cacopsylla (Hemiptera: Psyllidae) are among the most important arthropod pests of pears worldwide. These pests are exceedingly difficult to control, and new management tools are needed. Sex attractantpheromones have been used in IPM programs for pests of pome fruits (especially Lepidoptera), but not as yet for pest Hemiptera. Results of the current project showed that males of two psyllid pests of pears, Cacopsylla bidens (Israel) and Cacopsylla pyricola (North America), use volatile or semi-volatile compounds to locate female psyllids for mating.

Abstract:
Integrated pest management in modern crop protection may combine chemical and biological insecticides, particularly due to the risks to the environment and livestock arising from the massive use of non-selective chemicals. Thus, there is a need for safer alternatives, which target insects more specifically. Scorpions produce anti-insect selective polypeptide toxins that are biodegradable and non-toxic to warm-blooded animals. Therefore, integration of these substances into insect pest control strategies is of major importance. Moreover, clarification of the molecular basis of this selectivity

Abstract:
The plum curculio, Conotrachelus nenuphar, is a native pest of North America, predominantly affecting stone and pome fruits, such as peaches, apricots, nectarines and apples. Its damage, caused by oviposition and larval feeding, leads to scarring, premature fruit drop and deformities, posing significant economic challenges to orchard production. Control methods, including chemical treatments and biological control using entomopathogenic nematodes, have proven challenging due to the development of the pest inside the fruit and unpredictable population dynamics.

The fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) is a major pest native to the Americas, recently invading Africa, Asia and Oceania, severely affecting maize and other crops. Control efforts mainly involve chemical pesticides, posing public health risks. Classical biological control has not been implemented in the invaded regions, though some native parasitoids have adapted to the pest. In the Americas, various parasitoids and predators attack S. frugiperda. The egg parasitoid Telenomus remus, successful in the Americas, is already present in Africa and Asia.

Abstract:
The brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys, a severe pest of Asian origin, has spread to Europe, North America and South America, causing significant damage to fruits, vegetables and nuts. Chemical control methods are often ineffective due to the high mobility, broad host range and resilience of the pest. Biological control, particularly using egg parasitoids, presents a promising long-term solution. The egg parasitoid Trissolcus japonicus is considered the most promising candidate for biological control, with adventive populations found in Europe and North America showing varying level

Pesticides are agricultural technologies that farmers use to control pests and weeds and remain an important modern input for crop production including vegetable farming. There are many types of pesticides, such as insecticides, fungicides, rodenticides and herbicides, that target different threats to crops. While the potential production benefits of chemical pesticides are undeniable, people are becoming more aware of their risks. There is an array of dangers associated with inappropriate pesticide use.
