A Handbook of Field Methods for Research on Rice Stem-borers and Their Natural Enemies by T. Nishida,T. Torii Pdf
The population of many Asian countries are dependent on rice for their staple diet and therefore any insight into the ecology of rice stem-borers and their natural enemies would not only be of scientific interest, but also of considerable economic value. This handbook presents some of the methods that might prove useful in carrying out such research, and thus makes it possible to speed up the progress of research on the insects in question in sub-tropical and tropical rice-growing areas.

Pests Control and Acarology by Dalila Haouas,Levente Hufnagel Pdf
Pests Control and Acarology presents novel methods adopted in pest management for cereal crops and fruit trees. Each chapter was written by experts in their respective areas, and provides a rigorous review and outline of current trends and future needs, to expedite progress in the field. The book was structured in three sections as follows. The first section introduces the topics and defines concepts of Integrated Pest Management and Biological Control. The second section includes two chapters: the first one discusses a new trap barrier system for rodent pest control in rice and the second one presents methods used in the management of stem borers in cereal crops. The third section presents various topics within the area of Acarology.
An assemblage of approximately twenty moth species belonging to the families Crambidae, Pyralidae and Noctuidae constitute the most important cereal pests in many parts of Africa. The caterpillars of these moths bore into the stems of maize, sorghum, millet and rice, often killing the plant, and are commonly known as stem or stalk borers. The cereals attacked are grown on small farms to feed the farmers and their families and are of great importance as the staple food for the population in most parts of Africa. Complex control measures, including the use of chemicals, are often inappropriate. This book provides the information necessary for pursuing integrated pest management of African cereal stem borers, in particular strategies using natural enemy components. The book begins by characterizing the economically important species by region and by their biology and host plants. The book then describes in detail the taxonomy and rearing techniques for the moths, their larvae and their natural enemies. It includes illustrated keys of species and lists of distributions and hosts, and it concludes with a summary of current control measures and those being investigated.

Handbook of Biological Control by T. W. Fisher,Thomas S. Bellows,L. E. Caltagirone,D. L. Dahlsten,Carl B. Huffaker,G. Gordh Pdf
For many years the use of chemical agents such as pesticides and herbicides has been effective in controlling the many varieties of pests that infest both agricultural crops and backyard gardens. However, these pests are gradually becoming resistant to these agents, because the agents themselves are acting as selective factors making the pests better and better able to resist and persist. As a result, the use of biological controlling agents is increasing. This book is a comprehensive and authoritative handbook of biological control.
