Common Pests to Watch Out For:
Although Innova 196 F1 is pest-tolerant, farmers should monitor and manage the following pests for optimal results:
-

-
Brown Planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens): A sap-sucking insect that causes hopper burn.
-
Rice Leaf Folder (Cnaphalocrocis medinalis): Folds and feeds on leaves, reducing photosynthesis.
-
Armyworm (Mythimna separata): Defoliates the crop rapidly if not controlled.
-
Rice Hispa (Dicladispa armigera): Scrapes leaf surface, impacting plant health.
Pest Management Tips:
-
Regular scouting, especially during the tillering and booting stages.
