Cultural Control of white grubs
- Deep ploughing in summer.
- Always use well decomposed organic manure it attracts the adult beetles.
- Partial or complete lopping of host plants and retaining of a few most preferred host trees in the area for congregation of white grub adults.
- Crop rotation with sorghum/pearl millet or maize.
- Early sowing to avoid damage due to insect pest.
- Standing crops of fodder, sugarcane etc. are also protected.
