Crop protection » Oil Seeds » Groundnut » Pest » Termites

Symptoms

  • Wilting of plants in patches
  • Termites penetrate and hollow out the tap root and stem thus kill the plant.
  • Bore holes into pods and damage the seed.
  • It removes the soft corky tissue from between the veins of pods causing scarification, weaken the shells, make them liable to entry and growth of Aspergillus flavus that produces aflotoxins

Management

Digging the termataria and destruction of the queen is most important in termite management

Use well rotten organic manure

Harvest the groundnut as soon as they are matured, early removal of the produce from the field will reduce the chances of termite damage to pods
