Insecticides are chemicals that control insects. Similarly, the chemicals used to control mites (acarina) are called as acaricides or miticides. Insects cause damage to the crops by sucking the plant sap from roots, leaves, stems, by defoliating the plant and by boring the stem, flowers and fruits, resulting in significant reduction in crop yields. In order to control different types of insect pests, the recommended insecticides and dose by the saus icar institutes based on the type of insects and their nature of damage, should be adopted. The crops are also attacked by different types of mites e.g. Red mite, yellow mite etc., which suck the cell sap from the leaves, resulting weakening of the plant, dropping of flowers and fruits and finally reduction in crop yields.
