Research Interest
Developed spectral signatures and spectral indices for rice brown plant hopper with remote sensing techniques. Assessed impact of effect of elevated CO2 on rice BPH in open top chambers (OTCs). Developed pest-weather based forewarning thumb rule for rice BPH and Yellow stem borer for Mandya region, Karnataka, India. Documented the wild pollinators in broccoli and studied the importance of wild pollinators in broccoli pollination and seed setting.
