The discipline orients its services to the development of integrated pest control measures including cultural, chemical and biological control for eradication of white grub. Nevertheless, development of low cost and effective plant protection measures against important insect-pests of major hill crops is amongst the primary responsibilities. As one of the coordinating centers of AICRP on white -grub, the discipline has identified predominant species of white grub, their host range and different endemic pockets in the region. The recommendations for effective control of white grub have been formulated. Currently, biological control of the nefarious pest is being practiced and popularized.
