“…From the first peak period to the end of the peak period of the population, the repellent core was fixed in the tea bush, and the leafhoppers were “pushed out.” Meanwhile, within 30 cm of the canopy of the tea tree, the sticky board carrying the attractant lure core was hung, and the leafhoppers were “attracted” and killed on the board, which effectively reduces the use of chemical pesticides and prevents pesticide residues on the fresh leaves of tea plants (Han et al., 2020). (III) Utilize biological control using spiders (Han et al., 2006), parasitoids (Johnson et al., 2001), and microorganisms (Verma et al., 2020). Moreover, plant health activators such as biological selenium NPs can be used to improve the nutritional quality and stress resistance of tea (Li et al., 2020).…”

Due to its rich health benefits and unique cultural charm, tea drinking is increasingly popular with the public in modern society. The safety of tea is the top priority that affects the development of tea industry and the health of consumers. During the process of tea growth, pesticides are used to prevent the invasion of pests and diseases with maintaining high quality and stable yield. Because hot water brewing is the traditional way of tea consumption, water is the main carrier for pesticide residues in tea into human body accompanied by potential risks. In this review, pesticides used in tea gardens are divided into two categories according to their solubility, among which water-soluble pesticides pose a greater risk. We summarized the methods of the sample pretreatment and detection of pesticide residues and expounded the migration patterns and influencing factors of tea throughout the process of growth, processing, storage, and consumption. Moreover, the toxicity and safety of pesticide residues and diseases caused by human intake were analyzed. The risk assessment and traceability of pesticide residues in tea were carried out, and potential eco-friendly improvement strategies were proposed. The review is expected to provide a valuable reference for reducing risks of pesticide residues in tea and ensuring the safety of tea consumption.

“…Each cadaver was prior surface sterilized by dipping into 0.1% NaOCl for a minute followed by twice washing with sterile water before being placed in sterile plastic Petri dishes (90x10 mm) which were lined with moistened, sterile blotter paper for conidial germination as per Mnyone et al (2011). Settings were incubated in the dark for three days at 28 ± 2°C, 75% RH until mycelial outgrowth become visible, a procedure by Verma et al (2020). Emerging mycelia were picked using a sterile inoculating needle under a dissecting microscope (Leica Zoom 2000 No.…”

Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) is a highly destructive pest that affects major food and cash crops in Sub-Saharan Africa. Maize, in particular, is a preferred host for this pest, posing a significant threat to food security. Initially, conventional synthetic pesticides were widely used to combat the pest. However, the potential of entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) as cost-effective and safe alternative has been recognized. The objective of this study was to collect and identify the local EPF species in selected areas of Tanzania's mainland, namely Mwanza, Morogoro, Coast, and Songwe regions. Morphological and molecular methods were employed to identify the fungal species recovered from 100 S. frugiperda cadavers. The findings revealed that 90% of the recovered fungi belonged to the genera of Fusarium while the remaining 10% were Clonostachys. These results suggest that Fusarium species hold promise as effective bio-control agents against S. frugiperda due to their wide distribution and tolerance to field disturbances. However, additional studies are necessary to validate the effectiveness of these recovered fungi against S. frugiperda.

“…In the case of crops, biopesticides provide noticeable pest management dependability as part of incorporated pest management [1]. In North America and Europe, viruses are used as pest control agents against insect pests [2][3][4]. Agricultural-related awareness programs on radio, TV, mobile and other media might aid in disseminating agricultural knowledge among farmers and ranchers about the hazards of pesticide use on human health as well as the other linked environmental concerns [5][6][7][8][9].…”

The most important factor for increasing crop production is pest and pathogen resistance, which has a major impact on global food security. Pest management also emphasizes the need for farming awareness. A high crop yield is ultimately achieved by protecting crops from pests and raising public awareness of the devastation caused by pests. In this research, we aim to investigate the intricate impacts of nonlinear delayed systems for managing crop pest management (CPM) supervised by Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs). Our focus will be on highlighting the intricate and often unpredictable relationships that occur over time among crops, pests, strategies for rehabilitation, and environmental factors. The nonlinear delayed CPM model incorporated the four compartments: crop biomass density [B(t)], susceptible pest density [S(t)], infected pest density [I(t)], and population awareness level [A(t)]. The approximate solutions for the four compartments B(t), S(t), I(t), and A(t) are determined by the implementation of sundry scenarios generated with the variation in crop biomass growth rate, rate of pest attacks, pest natural death rate, disease associated death rate and memory loss of aware people, by means of exploiting the strength of the Adams (ADS) and explicit Runge-Kutta (ERK) numerical solvers. Comparative analysis of the designed approach is carried out for the dynamic impacts of the nonlinear delayed CPM model in terms of numerical outcomes and simulations based on sundry scenarios.
