BARI Entomologists have developed around 25 bio-rational based insect pest management technologies; many of these are now very popular at farm level. However,   several invasive pests have recently been first recorded by BARI entomologists. Most damaging ones are: the tomato leaf miner (Phthorimaea absoluta)- native South America, first recorded in our country during 2016; the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda)- native to tropical and sub tropical regions of America, first recorded during 2018 and the rugose spiraling whitefly (Aleurodicus rugioperculatus)- native to central America, first recorded in our country during 2019. By this time, Entomology Division, BARI has developed sustainable management technologies against these invasive pests.
