Chilli was introduced to India by Portuguese traders but now it is the most cultivated crop across the country. Having cultivated mostly in open agricultural fields, the crop has been invaded by several Insects. In this blog let us understand the strategies for managing major insects of the crop.

Chilli Aphids
Chilli aphids are small in size but the damage caused by them is of great significance. They are pear-shaped insects with long, thin tail-like appendages they range in colour from green to brown. Aphids suck the sap from the leaves, causing the leaves to curl, the plants to grow stunted, and the flowers and fruits will be misshapen.
