Controlling Heliothis herbally |
|
|
Details |
Ramanbhai uses 500 gm each of Nilgiri (Eucalyptus globulus), Naffatyo (Ipomea auatica), Tobaco (Nicotiana tabacum), Neem (Azadirachta indica A.Juss) and ‘Bhangaro’ (Eclipta alba) and grinds them with 20 liter water. The mixture is then boiled till 1/4th of it is left. The extract is then filtered and sprayed over various affected crops twice with a six day interval in between. This helps prevents Heliothis attack in crops.
Eucalyptus globulus is an effective insecticide, antiseptic and analgesic. Has an antibacterial, anti-viral quality. http://www. simply natural direct. com/index. php?act=view Cat &catId=2& page=2
Specific sucrose esters from Nicotiana tabacum have been found to act as effective, environmentally safe pesti-cides against soft-bodied arthropod plant pests. http://www.freepatents online.com/5260281.html
Neem has been very commonly used by all for its pesticidal / insecticidal properties.
