Abstract
In agriculture, pest management is an important task wherein appropriate principles have to be necessarily deployed. Farmers greatly depend on synthetic insecticides for pest management. For successful chemical pest control, knowledge on insect identification, symptomatology, selection of insecticides, application methodologies etc. are prerequisite. Farmers should have ideas on these aspects to get hold of better plant protection with minimum expenses.
