But the question comes in the tea planters’ mind whether there is any adverse effect of such traps on the natural enemy complex of tea pest. In view of this, the present study was undertaken in organically managed tea garden of Meghalaya having higher diversity and density of natural enemies. The study revealed that there is no negative impact on natural enemy population concerning the use of yellow sticky traps. In addition a clear picture was received on type of arthropods trapped in the sticky traps. Key words: Yellow sticky trap North East India Tea plantation Pest Natural enemy INTRODUCTION submarginata), scale insects and mealy bugs are recognized as minor pests which may also adversely India is the second largest black tea producer in the affect the production of tea bushes [3-5].

Gracillariidae are one of the most diverse families of internally feeding insects, and many species are economically important. Study of this family has been hampered by lack of a robust and comprehensive phylogeny. In the present paper, we sequenced up to 22 genes in 96 gracillariid species, representing all previously rec- ognized subfamilies and genus groups, plus 20 outgroups representing other families and superfamilies.

  • Tea Pests and Pesticide Problems and Integrated Management
    The Journal of Agriculture and Environment Vol: 16, June 2015 Technical Paper TEA PESTS AND PESTICIDE PROBLEMS AND INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT Gita Shrestha & Resham B. Thapa11 ABSTRACT Tea is one of the most popular beverage and main cash crops of Nepal with a very high export potential. Its plantation has expanded over 19000 ha with production of nearly 21 million kg per annum providing employment opportunity to 12000 farmers and many traders in Nepal. This plant suffers from more than 300 recognized pests, of which 25-30 insect pests occur regularly in poorly managed tea garden and some of them are major ones causing significant crop loss. Their recognition of field occurrence and incidence helps in devising management options to reduce crop loss. Therefore, a study was conducted to monitor insect pests, ascertain their nature of incidence and time of occurrence in tea garden in terai (Bhadrapur), foot-hill (Barne) and mid- hill (Kanyam) of eastern Nepal. Information was gathered by interacting with local tea gardeners, close observation in the field, collection of species and their identification in the laboratory, which showed that both terai and foot-hills with warmer climate harbored higher number of species than mid-hills. Their integrated management is essential for sustainable tea production. Key words: Tea insect pests, field incidence, integrated management INTRODUCTION Tea is the oldest known beverage, native to China. It is one of the important plantation crops in the world. Its cultivation, processing and trade is expanding globally. The industry has grown globally into a $20 billion (Kahn, 2015). Annually over 2.6 million mt of tea is consumed in more than 65 countries, where people drink some 4 billion cup of tea brew daily (Jain, 2001).

    2. REVIEW OF LITERATURE 2.1 TEA CROP AND ITS PESTS Tea plants have a rhythmic growth pattern, dormancy and flush, coinciding with either management practice or environmental conditions or a combination of both (Manivel 1980). The permanent leaves below the plucking surface are known as maintenance foliage. These maintenance foliage produce photosynthates which are supplied to other parts of a plant, which respire and grow actively with the help of these photosynthates (Kabir 2001). The fresh flush above the maintenance leaves are harvested for tea manufacturing. As mentioned earlier, tea bushes being a monoculture provide habitat for 1031 arthropod species and 82 nematodes species over the world (Chen and Chen 1989). In Asia, tea is affected by a total of 230 species of insects and mites (Muraleedharan 1992). However, Hazarika et al. (1994) reported that in NE India, 173 arthropods and 16 nematodes are considered as pests of tea. Among them few important pest species from plantations of NE India are: a. Sucking insects: Tea green leaf hooper (Emposca flavescens) (Homoptera: Cicadellidae); Tea aphids (Toxoptera auranti) (Homoptera: Aphididae); Tea Mosquito bug (Helopeltis theivora) (Heteroptera: Miridae); Thrips (Taeniothrips setiventris) (Thysanoptera: Thripidae); Scale insects (Lacenium uride) (Hemiptera: Coccidae) b. Borers: Red borer (Zeuzera coffeae) (Lepidoptera: Cossidae); Shot hole borer (Xyleborus fornicates) (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) c. Root feeders: Root grub (Holotricha impressa) (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae); Termites [Odontotermes obesus, O. parvidens, Nasutitermes sp., Microtermes obesi, 18 Euhamitermes lighti, Synhamitermes quadriceps, Pericapritermes assamensis, Malaysiocapritermes holmgrenii and Heterotermes indicola] (Blatodea: Termitidae) d. Non-insect arthropods (Mites): Red spider mites (Oligonychus coffeae) (Acari: Tetranychidae), Scarlet mite (Brevipalpus californicus) (Acari: Tenuipalpidae), Purple mite (Calacarus carinatus) (Acari: Eriophyidae) e.

As a result of importer and consumer concerns, pesticide residues have become a major problem for the tea industry. Integrated pest management (IPM) may help to overcome the overuse of pesticides and subsequent residues.
