Jatropha Curcas is gaining significance commercially as the need of fossil fuels increases enormously and also Jatropha is an environmentally friendly energy plantation. Plantation of this plant is considered to be an outstanding fuel alternative and it is also very economical compared to other fuels. Recently, Jatropha is facing some difficulty with insects and illness. The insects are categorized into two ranges: Pest that affect young plants and Pest that impact developed plants.
Young plant pests: Cutworm, Beetle, Army worm, Grasshopper.
Agrotis ipsilon: It is frequently called Cut worm. This pest affects the seedlings and young Jatropha plants. If the plant is affected by the cutworm, the stem gets cut nearer to the soil surface area and this will diminished the plant entirely.
Control: This bug can be controlled by picking the larva found around the plants or by mixing the bran, sawdust with insecticides.
Scarabaeid Beetle: This insect damages the root of the young plant. Initially, the larva consumes the natural matters present in the soil and after that comes to the root. The larva attack may kill the entire plant.
Control: The plant with great resistance power can conquer the pest. For heavy attack, insecticides with parts carbosulfan and carbofuran can be used to eliminate the pest.
Army worm: Spodoptera litura existence can be determined by biting in the leaves. The extreme infection might completely eliminate the plants.
Control: Insecticides are utilized to control the bugs.
Grasshopper: This is common bug discovered in numerous plants. Valanga nigricornis and Locusta migratoria extensively attacks the plant. The bug frequently assaults the young plant.
Control: The insecticides used betacyfluthrin, cypermethrin, thiodicarb, MIPC, and fipronil.
Pest observed in fully grown plants:
Pest of Stem: Ostrinia furnacalis, Xyleborus spp.
Ostrinia furnacalis and Xyleborus: This pest harms the Jatropha stem and it is extensively seen in Indonesia. The stem assaulted by this bug generally fall down. The presence can be determined by the larva penetration hole at the stem.
Control: The Insecticide typically used to manage this insect is carbofuran.
Pest of leaf: The common bugs observed are leaf caterpillar, Neetle caterpillar, Leaf hopper, Mite, Ear corn caterpillar.
Leaf Caterpillar: This insect can consume all the leaves of the plant in other words period. The quality and yield of the seeds get minimized due to the heavy attack.
Control: This can be managed by picking the old larvae around the surface and discarding the attacked leaves.
Needle Caterpillar: This caterpillar is covered with spines and produces a burning experience when permitted to exposure to skin as it produces particular chemical compound. Initially the bug crowded in the leaf and after that spread all over the plant when it grows older.
Control: Manually, the pest can be killed only by soaking it in water or kerosene. The heavy attack can be controlled by spraying organophosphate insecticides.
Leaf Hopper: This pest is discovered mainly in tropical and subtropical regions. The insect targets the leaf and sucks all the nutrients of the leaf and gets curls at the idea. Later, the entire leaf dry and die.
Control: The heavy attack can be managed by utilizing insecticides like imidachloprid, beta cyfluthrin or carbosulfan.
Mite: Mite also attacks the leaf and makes the entire plant weak. The insect presence can be identified when the leaf become yellow-colored, diminishes, turns red and drop. The insect can also be spread out through fallen leaves.
Control: Some preventive measures can be simulated appropriate sanitation and burning the fallen leaves. Heavy attack can be treated by spraying insecticides.
Some terrible pest which attacks flower and fruit are, Stink bug (Nezara viridula)
Chrysocoris javanus, Tip borer caterpillar.
Stink Bug: Sting bug is a major pest which assaults the plant during blossom duration so the crop yield entirely drops. This pest is seen around the tropical region.
The poisonous enzyme in the plant diminishes the whole plant.
Control: Insecticides suggested for this insect is chlorfluazuron, diflubenzuron, alfamethrin, and lamda cyhalothrin.
Tip borer caterpillar: The insects commonly takes place attacks the plant in blooming season and this pest is seen commonly in tropical regions. The female bug laid the eggs on the tender part of the plant and the young larvae feed the young fruits and plant tips.
Control: Manually, the assaulted seeds are advised to burn. The insecticides like monocrotophos and bensultap are sprayed at the blooming season.
