e0“Maize slightly suppressed insect pest incidence and damage to pigeon pea pods and seeds but significantly (P < 0.01) reduced grain yield in the regular pigeon pea crops in 2005 and 2006, although not in the 2007 ratoon.”

- Observation Termites, crickets and grasshoppers caused minimal seedling damage.
- Observation Clavigralla infestation caused 24% seed damage in regular crops.
- Observation Clavigralla infestation caused 29% seed damage in ratoon crops.
- Intervention effect Maize slightly suppressed pest incidence and pod and seed damage.
- Intervention effect Maize did not reduce grain yield in the 2007 ratoon.
- Observation Pigeon pea genotypes differed significantly in podding stage pest incidence.
- Observation Pigeon pea genotypes differed significantly in regular crop grain yield.
- Observation Ratoon crop grain yield was about 60% of regular crop yield.
- Recommendation Authors recommend ICPL 161 and ICPL 87 for pest tolerance and grain yield or hybridization.
