    Major insect pests have affected various crops in India from 2014-2020. Some of the main pests include the pink bollworm, which has affected cotton crops in states like Gujarat, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana each year. The fall army worm also emerged as a major pest of maize in many states in 2018-2019, affecting crops in over 19 states by 2019-2020. Yellow rust regularly impacted wheat production in northern states. Other recurrent pests were the brown plant hopper in rice, and the rugose spiraling whitefly in coconut palms.
