Insect pests and diseases can cause serious damage to natural/man-made forests. Many records on such losses have already been reported worldwide. Therefore, the solution should focus on keeping the pest/pathogen population at low levels, which will not interfere with the management objectives. A seminar on current challenges in the management of forest insect pests and diseases was held recently. Fifty-seven delegates, including eminent scientists, researchers, academicians from colleges and universities, farmers and personnel of the State Forest Departments (SFDs) participated in the event. The seminar aimed to share knowledge and ideas on the available techniques and technologies for the management of forest insect pests and diseases.
