Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Ladybird beetle populations appeared later than aphid populations in canola fields.
- Observation Predator numbers were nominal when aphids peaked and began migrating from canola fields.
- Intervention effect Food attractant treatments reduced aphid damage compared with controls.
- Intervention effect Protein hydrolysate and sugar attracted more predators than casein.
- Intervention effect Torula yeast treatment yielded significantly more predators than no treatment.
- Intervention effect Protein hydrolysate bait spray gave the lowest aphid infestation, followed by sugar and torula yeast.
- Intervention effect Chemically treated canola had higher grain yield than controls.
- Recommendation The authors suggest predator attracting for aphid management.
