520			_aFall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda J. E. Smith (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) pose a threat to food security and livelihoods of South Asian people as it is a trans-boundary insect capable of moving rapidly due to its natural distribution capacity and through international trade. As it is evident that Fall Armyworm arrived on the Indian subcontinent in May-2018 (Ganiger et al., 2018), and spread to atleast five South Asian nations due to strong flying capacity, climate adaptability, and wide host range. It has spread across India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and in Pakistan further approaching more beyond South East Asia. By the end of 2018, FAW was spread to Bangladesh and Myanmar and in January 2019 in Thailand, Vietnam and China (FAO, 2018a). Maize crop is being primarily infested by Fall Armyworm in the South Asian region (Kumela et al., 2018), in addition to infestation on sugarcane, sorghum, cotton and cabbage. The pest is capable of migrating long distances on prevailing winds and can also breed continuously in areas that are climatically suitable. Farmers need significant support to manage FAW sustainably in their cropping systems through Integrated Pest Management (IPM) activities. Awareness of the pest to the farmers is the key for sustainable development in South Asia. Suitable technologies/management practices for FAW management could pave way to control the pest and help in increased crop productions and incomes of farmers. The exchange of information within the region will be very much helpful for the researchers as well as for the extension workers to combat the pest costeffectively.
