WHAT IS THE PROBLEM?
Today the temperature of the earth is rising due to global
warming towards a huge destruction. This change in the
weather and climate is suitable for pest population ,as a
result it is rising rapidly. This is effecting our agriculture
severely .
For controlling them we are using chemical pesticides which
is affecting our ecosystem , ourselves, reason for bio
magnification , eutrophication.
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
AIM : The aim of study is to observe the influence climatic
change on the growth of pests and to control them by efficient
use of biochemical pesticides
OBJECTIVES :
• To study the changes in the growth of pests with respect to
the climate.
• To study their control by chemical pesticides.
• To study the impact of these chemical pesticides.
• To study the control of pests by biochemical pesticides.
HYPOTHESIS
• The pest population is increasing due to some
change in weather and climate .
• We should control this pest population in a
efficient and ecofriendly way .
Advantages of chemical
pesticides
Disadvantages of chemical
pesticides
Effect very fast . Disturb the pH of the soil .
Required in less amount . Is the reason for bio magnification .
Is the reason for eutrophication .
Many a times some residue is left
which is dangerous for us

GENERAL PESTS IN
OUR LOCALITYI. White grub(Holotricha consaguinea ) it is a polyphagous .
II. Red hairy caterpillar (Amsecta moori ) it is a polyphagous .
III. Termite ( Odontotenmes obesus ) it is a polyphagous.
IV. Rice stem borrer ( Chilo suppressialis) it is a rice pest .
V. Gram pod borrer (Helicoverpa armigeru ) it is an important pest
which attack on cereal crops like ,gram fibre crops and
horticulture .
VI. Pink boll worms (Pechiriphoru gossypiella ) it is a cotton pest
VII. Paddy grasshopper( Hierogly phus banian )
EXPERIMENT-1(BIOCHEMICAL
PESTICIDE –NEEM OIL)AIM ; To see the effectiveness of neem extract as a potential pesticide
.
MATERIALS REQUIRED :
• Some pests in the field
• Neem extract
• Soap solution
• Sprayer
PROCEDURE :
• Put some neem extract in the sprayer and use it as a pesticides .
EXPERIMENT – 2 (EUCALYPTUS
OIL )
AIM : To see the effectiveness of the eucalyptus oil as potential
pesticides
MATERIALS REQUIRED :
• Eucalyptus oil
• Some pests in the field
• Sprayer
PROCEDURE :
• Take some eucalyptus oil in the sprayer and use as a pesticides
EXPERIMENT – 3 (CITRUS
POWDER)AIM : To see the effectiveness of the citrus powder as potential
pesticides
MATERIALS REQUIRED :
• Citrus powder
• water
• Some pests in the field
• Sprayer
PROCEDURE :
• Take some citrus powder in the sprayer and use as a pesticides
RESULT
Biochemical pesticides like neem extract , eucalyptus oil and orange citrus
powder are very efficient and can be used as biochemical pesticides..
SOLUTION
According to the data collected from internet , experiments and
survey conducted biochemical pesticides are best suitable
replacement for these chemical pesticides .
These doesn’t have any negative effect on the environment .
Easy to access and can be made at home .
CONCLUSIONS More temperature and rainfall brings an increase in the pest
population which are being controlled with the help of chemical
pesticides.
chemical pesticides are not good for our environment , but we can not
leave the pests as they are affecting our crop production.
Therefore, as the data suggests biochemical pesticides can be used as
a replacement for the chemical pesticides , which are environment
friendly.
FUTURE PLANWe are planning to spread awareness about the negative
impact of the chemical pesticides and the efficiency of the
biochemical pesticides and prevention of pest attacks on the
crop grown by the farmers of our locality. We want do
implement this in our locality then the state and finally in the
whole country .
