Abstract

The dependence of stemborer incidences on sugarcane crop upon the meteorological factors is well recognized. Therefore to explore the feasibility of meteorological forewarning of its attack, the statistical analysis of entomological and meteorological data for the years 1967-1980 from Anakapalle has been done and discussed in this paper. The simple and multiple linear regression techniques were used. An attempt is also made to delineate the approximate risky zone for stemborer attacks in India on the basis of qualitative pest data for the years 1954-1980 received from nearly 50 agrometeorological stations in India.
