The book 'Biocontrol of Brinjal Pest with Predator Species' written by L. Kalaiyarasi is a comprehensive guide to sustainable pest control in agriculture. Focusing on the brinjal, or eggplant, crop and its main pest, the brinjal fruit and shoot borer (Leucinodes orbonalis), the book explores the use of predator species as biological control agents to manage insect pests.Integrated pest management is the main approach advocated in the book, and the use of natural enemies of insect pests is a key component of this approach. The book covers various predator species such as parasitic wasps, predatory mites, lady beetles, lacewings, praying mantises, and Trichogramma wasps, as well as entomopathogenic nematodes and fungi. It also discusses the principles of insect ecology and behavior, beneficial insects, insect population dynamics, and insectary management.The book emphasizes the importance of an ecological approach to pest control, which promotes the balance between pest and predator populations, and encourages the use of non-toxic pest control methods. It also discusses the negative impacts of chemical control and the benefits of natural pest control for crop protection, agricultural biodiversity, and environmental protection.Overall, this book is a valuable resource for farmers, researchers, and students interested in biocontrol and sustainable farming practices. It provides a practical and informative guide for eggplant pest management, crop health, and agricultural sustainability.
