SK Agrotech – Pheromone Lure for Sugarcane Early Shoot Borer (Chilo infuscatellus)
About Sugarcane Early Shoot Borer (Chilo infuscatellus)
The Sugarcane Early Shoot Borer is one of the most destructive sugarcane pests in India. The larvae attack young sugarcane plants, boring into the shoots and damaging the growing points. This results in dead hearts, stunted tillers, and reduced plant population, causing 25–30% yield loss if not controlled at an early stage.
SK Agrotech Solution – Pheromone Lure & Trap
SK Agrotech’s pheromone lure & trap for Sugarcane Early Shoot Borer provides farmers with an eco-friendly and highly effective pest management solution.
The pheromone lure attracts male moths of Chilo infuscatellus.
The trap captures them, preventing mating and reducing the pest population.
