The past year has been no different. Throughout its history, ANJ has proved its resilience by optimizing our resources, taking strategic and prudent action when needed, and always protecting the interests of our stakeholders through our philosophy of responsible development. The past year has seen us step-up our focus on addressing challenges through innovation and resilience to ensure that we meet our responsible development commitments. We have consistently championed innovation by empowering our people to apply their knowledge, ingenuity and creativity to improve the productivity and sustainability of our business. They have responded by developing solutions across our operations that add value, increase efficiency and reduce costs. These have included technological advances such as our E-Plantation Mobile Solution to improve our field operations; new applications for sago starch and edamame that have both commercial value and can contribute to better nutrition and income generation in communities; engaging our people as citizen scientists to document the biodiversity in our operational areas; expanding our waste recycling initiatives to reduce inorganic fertilizer and fossil fuel use; and working with communities to bring about changes that make a real difference to their lives, such as our savings cooperative in West Papua. Across the business, we have identified innovative ways to use existing resources more effectively, never losing sight of our responsibility to build and sustain our business for a better future for all our stakeholders.

High infestation was reported in Miri, Mukah and Sibu. Censuses on the infestation of T. rufivena were conducted at three different locations, i.e. in Miri (young palm), Mukah (mature palm) and Sibu (ablation samples). Samples for census were taken from infested bunches, female and male inflorescences. The census was done by chopping the bunches and the female inflorescences while for the male inflorescences, the bottom of spikelets were cut to determine the number of live larvae and pupae. The census 44 Serangga reveiled that in Sibu, a high infestation of T. rufivena was found on male inflorescences compared to bunches of female inflorescences. The mean number of live larvae found in male inflorescences for the first and second day of census recorded 35.3 ± 15.7 and 14.0 ± 7.3, respectively. The highest number of live larvae recorded from male inflorescences was 207 and 65, respectively. Meanwhile, the mean number of live larvae from infested bunches and female inflorescences on the first day were 9.9 ± 3.5 and 19.4 ± 4.4, respectively.

  • Emerging and Re-Emerging Biotic Stresses of Agricultural Crops in India and Novel Tools for Their Better Management
    GENERAL ARTICLES Emerging and re-emerging biotic stresses of agricultural crops in India and novel tools for their better management J. Kumar*, R. K. Murali-Baskaran, S. K. Jain, P. N. Sivalingam, J. Mallikarjuna, Vinay Kumar, K. C. Sharma, J. Sridhar, P. Mooventhan, A. Dixit and P. K. Ghosh Food security of our country is at risk due to heavy yield losses of agricultural crops caused by pests and diseases known together as biotic stresses. Conventional management practices in vogue are not competent under the current situations obscured by the incitants of biotic stresses which have either enhanced their offensive capabilities due to adaptive mutations or regained their patho- genic/herbivory potential owing to climate change. Numerous causal agents of biotic stresses are also introduced in the country or new regions of the country either through natural dispersal as invasive species, or on account of quarantine irregularities at national or international levels. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to appraise the impact of these new biotic stresses burgeoned in the recent past and to develop novel technologies for their management. To devise an effective preventive and eradicative strategy for containing these biotic stresses, new research innovations need to be practiced such as deciphering basic/molecular mechanism of host-pathogen/insect inte- ractions; endophytic mechanisms of plant protection; nanotechnology in pest management; host resistance strengthening by gene cloning, recombinant DNA technologies, RNA biology, utilizing gene editing technologies such as CRISPR/Cas9, etc. This article presents a comprehensive account of new biotic stresses of agricultural crops built up in the country and also reviews the novel scien- tific inventions made worldwide which can be further employed to devise more efficient methods for alleviating impact of these biotic stresses of food crops in the country.

Insecticides application is inevitable to prevent economic loss. However, to protect insect pollinators which co- habitat with the pest and reduce the risk of resistance development among the pest to insecticides, rotation treatments with more than one pollinator-friendly insecticides is recommended. This paper examines the effectiveness of rotating several pollinator-friendly insecticides in controlling the pest. To assess the effectiveness of different rotation combination, a field study on a seven-year-old peat estate was carried out using several insecticides combinations and application intervals, then the level of infestation post-treatment was assessed. Significantly, the results showed that only four single rounds of insecticides application in a year would yield relatively better control than nine rounds of Bacillus thuringiensis applications. Overall, there was no significant difference in clean bunches percentages obtained between five rounds of treatment compared to only four rounds per year. The result strengthens our confidence that the optimum and most cost-effective approach for one-year protection against T.
