Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Below-ground insecticide treatment lowered western corn rootworm larvae on corn roots to 0.02 per plant, against 0.05 on untreated plots.
- Intervention effect Below-ground insecticide treatment lowered the number of western corn rootworm cocoons on corn roots to 0.12, against 0.25 on untreated plots.
- Observation Western corn rootworm imagoes on silk numbered 0.05 to 0.10 per corn plant at Stara Gunja.
- Intervention effect Insecticide-treated plots caught 1,376 western corn rootworm imagoes in traps, against 431 on the untreated plot.
- Intervention effect Corn treated with Dotan below-ground insecticide yielded 8.03 t/ha, slightly above the control at 7.98 t/ha.
- Intervention effect Corn treated with Counter below-ground insecticide yielded 8.72 t/ha, above the control at 7.98 t/ha.
- Recommendation Chemical control of western corn rootworm was not justified for now, given the low number of adults caught per plant.
- Recommendation Corn roots should be checked earlier to determine correct larval numbers and root damage.
- Recommendation Investigations of this kind should continue in future seasons.
- Observation Western corn rootworm spread in Croatia from 1995 to 1999 over 12,750 km2.
