- Intervention effect Trichogramma releases reduced Leaf Injury (LI) in fodder maize relative to controls.
- Intervention effect Trichogramma releases reduced percent DH patterns in fodder maize relative to controls.
- Intervention effect Two releases of 125,000 parasitized eggs lowered dead heart incidence to 1.0 and 0.62% versus other treatments.
- Intervention effect The promising release treatment yielded 445 q ha-1 green fodder, significantly above the untreated control at 392 q ha-1.
- Recommendation The authors recommend releasing 125,000 T. chilonis per hectare in two releases to reduce Chilo damage with high economic returns.
