Iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) is a major public health problem in India, as is evident from the fact that 15 states (out of 22) and 5 Union territories (out of 9) are endemic for IDD. The Government of India decided in 1985 to iodize the entire salt meant for human consumption in the country by 1992. The present study was conducted to know the preference and common practices with regard to use of salt so that the iodized salt, once made universally available in India, has its desired impact.

Pecan [Carya illinoensis (Wang) K Koch.] fruits were found infested by two husk feeders, Garella ruficirra (Hampson) and Conogethes sp. during July-August, 2015 at Palampur representing mid-hill regions of Himachal Pradesh. The infestation ranged from 10-65 per cent in different orchards/ plantations. Feeding by these insects resulted in appreciable reduction in yield due to pre-mature fruit drop and secondary infection of micro-organisms. Amongst two husk feeders, G. ruficirra was the dominating species (95%). Both of them were recorded for the first time infesting pecan and seem to be new pest record of pecan in India.Keywords

Two spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae) is highly polyphagous and cosmopolitan pest attacking wide range of crops, limiting the yield and thus, cause huge economic losses. Mite abundance is increasing in spite of using acaricides in Himachal Pradesh which may be attributed to acaricidal resistance in mites. Studies on T. urticae populations collected from six localities were undertaken during 2018-19 against three acaricides, namely, fenazaquin, hexythiazox and propargite. The studies revealed that resistance development was there among field populations collected from different localities. The resistanc for fenazaquin, hexythiazox and propargite were in range of 3.62 to 4.26, 1.88 to 2.45 and 3.47 to 5.63, respectively. The Una population was found most resistant to all the acaricides followed by Kullu and Solan. The Palampur population was observed to be least resistant to acaricides.Keywords

In order to explore the possibility of sources of resistance and relative tolerance of cultivars based upon the damage inflicted, studies were undertaken to evaluate onion and garlic entries/genotypes during February-April, 2016. The screening of the genotypes revealed thrips population to remain low till the end of March which attained peak in the first week of April. Mean thrips population count on onion was maximum on ON-14-01 being at par to ALRO 213, ON14-04 and minimum on genotype OLR 1352 which being at par with ON 15-16 and OLR 1372. Among the garlic genotypes AVT-2/GRL-1351 and AVT-1/GN-14-25 showed maximum thrips population whereas GRL-1349 and AVT-1/GN14-23 sustained minimum population. Foliar damage varied from 4.90 to 25.40 per cent and 0 to 6.6 per cent in onion and garlic, respectively. Correlation of population build-up with environmental factors showed positive correlation with prevailing temperature but negative with rainfall, relative humidity, wind speed and sunshine hours for both the crops but correlation with maximum relative humidity and wind speed was significant for onion crop only.Keywords
