Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Plum Curculio Several publications on the plum curculio have been issued during the course of the work. An article on this insect was published In the Yearbook of the department for 1905 in a paper entitled The principal insect enemies of the peach. Circular 73 of the Bureau of Entomology, on the plum curculio, by Messrs. Fred Johnson and A. A. Girault, was published in 1906; and the results of a comparison of the demonstration and one - spray methods in the control of the codling moth and plum curculio were published in November, 1910, as Part VII of Bulletin no. 80 of the Bureau of Entomology, a revised edition of which was issued March 30, 1911. Circular 120 of the Bureau of Entomology, entitled Control of the Brown - rot and Plum Curculio on Peaches, by W. M. Scott, of the Bureau of Plant Indus try, and the senior author, was issued in March, 1910. This gave instructions for the preparation and use Of a combined spray for the curculio and fungous diseases of the fruit of the peach. The results of further experiments in peach spraying for the curculio, brown - rot, and scab were given in Farmers' Bulletin 440, by W. M. Scott and the senior author, published in March, 1911.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experiments on the Control of the Plum Curculio, Brown Rot, and Scab, Attacking the Peach in Georgia A study of Table '4 shows that there was a moderate infection of brown rot and, for central Georgia, a heavy infection of scab.' There was a moderately heavy infestation of curculio, although this infesta tion in the untreated or check plat was not SO heavy as in that of Of the fruit from the check plat, 22. 9 per cent was infested with the curculio; 32 per cent showed brown-rot infection, and per cent infection with scab.

Book Dusting and Spraying Peach Trees After Harvest for Control of the Plum Curculio  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Dusting and Spraying Peach Trees After Harvest for Control of the Plum Curculio Classic Reprint written by Oliver I. Snapp and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dusting and Spraying Peach Trees After Harvest for Control of the Plum Curculio During the time this work was under way, about 75 per cent more beetles were collected from plat 3, which received no treatments, than from plat 2, one of the treated lats. This is very interesting, since Table 1 shows that plat 2 had a heavier curculio infestation than plat 3 before any dust was applied. The average number of beetles per tree at the close of the experiment in each plat was found from Table 4 to be as follows: Plat 1 dusted Aug. 12 and Plat 2 dusted Aug. 12) Plat 3 (no treatment) Comparing with Table 1, the average decrease on plat 1 was beetle per tree, the average decrease on plat 2 was beetle per tree.

Book Introduction to Integrated Pest Management

Download or read book Introduction to Integrated Pest Management written by M.L. Flint and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated control of pests was practiced early in this century, well before anyone thought to call it "integrated control" or, still later, "integrated pest management" (IPM), which is the subject of this book by Mary Louise Flint and the late Robert van den Bosch. USDA entomologists W. D. Hunter and B. R. Coad recommended the same principles in 1923, for example, for the control of boll weevil on cotton in the United States. In that program, selected pest-tolerant varieties of cotton and residue destruction were the primary means of control, with insecticides consid ered supplementary and to be used only when a measured incidence of weevil damage occurred. Likewise, plant pathologists had also developed disease management programs incorporating varietal selection and cul tural procedures, along with minimal use of the early fungicides, such as Bordeaux mixture. These and other methods were practiced well before modern chemical control technology had developed. Use of chemical pesticides expanded greatly in this century, at first slowly and then, following the launching of DDT as a broadly successful insecticide, with rapidly increasing momentum. In 1979, the President's Council on Environmental Quality reported that production of synthetic organic pesticides had increased from less than half a million pounds in 1951 to about 1.4 billion pounds-or about 3000 times as much-in 1977.

Book Pesticide Resistance in Arthropods

Download or read book Pesticide Resistance in Arthropods written by Richard Roush and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bruce E. Tabashnik and Richard T. Roush Pesticide resistance is an increasingly urgent worldwide problem. Resistance to one or more pesticides has been documented in more than 440 species of insects and mites. Resistance in vectors of human dise8se, particularly malaria-transmit ting mosquitoes, is a serious threat to public health in many nations. Agricultural productivity is jeopardized because of widespread resistance in crop and livestock pests. Serious resistance problems are also evident in pests of the urban environ ment, most notably cockroaches. Better understanding of pesticide resistance is needed to devise techniques for managing resistance (Le. , slowing, preventing, or reversing development of resistance in pests and promoting it in beneficial natural enemies). At the same time, resistance is a dramatic example of evolution. Knowledge of resistance can thus provide fundamental insights into evolution, genetics, physiology, and ecology. Resistance management can help to reduce the harmful effects of pesticides by decreasing rates of pesticide use and prolonging the efficacy of environmentally safe pesticides. In response to resistance problems, the concentration or frequency of pesticide applications is often increased. Effective resistance management would reduce this type of increased pesticide use. Improved monitoring of resis tance would also decrease the number of ineffective pesticide applications that are made when a resistance problem exists but has not been diagnosed. Resistance often leads to replacement of one pesticide with another that is more expensive and less compatible with alternative controls.

Book Georgia Pest Management Handbook

Download or read book Georgia Pest Management Handbook written by Emily Cabrera and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Georgia Pest Management Handbook provides current information on selection, application, and safe use of pest control chemicals. This handbook has recommendations for pest control around homes and on pets; for pests of home garden vegetables, fruits, and ornamentals; and for pests of public health interest associated with our homes. Cultural, biological, physical, and other types of control are recommended where appropriate. Pesticide recommendations are based on information on the manufacturer labels and on performance data from research and extension trials at the University of Georgia and its sister institutions. Because environmental conditions, the severity of pest pressure, and methods of application vary widely, recommendations do not imply that performance of pesticides will always be acceptable. This publication is intended to be used only as a guide. Trade and brand names are used only for information. The University of Georgia does not guarantee nor warrant published standards on any product mentioned; nor does the use of a trade or brand name imply approval of any product to the exclusion of others that may also be suitable.
