Effectiveness of Different Spay Timing Methods for the Control of Lepidopteron Pests in Cotton
Published In: GJSFR Part: D: Agriculture & Veterinary Volume: 16 Issue: 8
Background: Application of chemicals for the control of Helicoverpa armigera and Diparopsis castanea is based on egg threshold, while for Erias insulana and E. biplaga larval counts are used. In Zimbabwe the traditional farmer practice involves use of weekly spraying, fortnightly spraying and spraying at first sight of damaged squares. The methods may be less effective, costly, damaging ...
