Based on a comprehensive analysis of toxicity, insecticide resistance, effects on beneficial organisms and other aspects, the applicability of insecticides in sustainable rice pest management can be divided into 5 categories. The first category is applicable insecticides, namely fipronil, chlorpyrifos and pymetrozine; the second category is insecticides suitable for mixed use, mainly abamectin, Bt formulations and acephate; the third category is insecticides whose applicability tends to decline, including nereistoxin analogues, triazophos, imidacloprid, carbamates and buprofezin; the fourth category is inapplicable insecticides, namely highly toxic pesticides and pyrethroid pesticides; the fifth category is insecticides expected to be introduced for use in rice fields, namely the two pesticides tebufenozide and hexaflumuron. In the process of rice pest control, the appropriate pesticide should be selected to ensure sustainable pest management.
