Abstract: The main review purpose this paper provides updated
information on the effect of different transplanting (planting) dates on the
infestation of crops insect pets were carried out at different areas by
different investigators. The results different trials conducted in different
agro ecological zone revealed that the damage was higher and yield decrease
were recorded in late planted cops and the damage was gradually yield
increase in early planted crops in season. Management systems for different
crop insects’ pest involving variations in different planting date were
compared to evaluate their influence on insect pests’ damage and yield of
crops. The results the data from transplanting (Planting) time helped to
formulate projects on management of insect pests based on their damage and
economic threshold levels. The data will also help in developing a forecast
model for major pests of crops which in turn will help in taking timely
management practices. Early transplanted (planted) crops compared with late
transplanted (planted) significantly increase yield, growth parameters and
decrease insect pest damage incidence. Different trials studies indicated
that transplanted (planted) has pronounced positive effect on management of
insect pests and growth of crops. |
