- W348032875 abstract "In order to investigate whether farmers' chemical control of rice stem borer by the application of granular insecticide is effective and rational, two experiments were conducted, one in the aman (monsoon) season at the experimental farm of the Bangladesh Rice Research Institute at Gazipur and a second at the experimental farm of the Bangladesh Water Development Board at Amla, Kusthia. The two most commonly used insecticides against rice stem borers, carbofuran and diazinon, were not effective when applied as granules as preventive measure at half of the recommended dose ('farmers dose'). Such applications were not effective even when applied at the recommended dose, or applied more than once per season or even when applied on the basis of an economic threshold level. Economic analysis revealed all the insecticidal treatments of the experiment at Gazipur in 2001 and most of the treatments in Kusthia experiment in 2003 were of no use. Farmers' behaviour in using insecticides against rice stem borer had no yield or economic advantage. Thus, the irrational use of granules in rice seems is based on a misperception of much higher yield losses from stem borers than actually occurs. This risk aversive approach is not beneficial to the farmer but costly. Such an approach is also contributing to health hazards, environmental pollution and development of resistance in pest populations. It is important to recommend and release candidate insecticides on the basis of economic return but not on the percent mortality shown in tests under controlled or semi-controlled conditions. Insecticides applied at gross under doses over decades might have resulted in pesticide resistance in pest populations." @default.
