Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Colorado potato beetle pressure was greater in nonrotated than rotated potato plots.
- Intervention effect All tested insecticides controlled Colorado potato beetle better than the check.
- Intervention effect Nonrotated plots required significantly more sprays than rotated plots to bring beetle numbers below thresholds in both years.
- Intervention effect Rotation significantly increased overall potato yields in 1995.
- Intervention effect Rotation significantly increased economic returns in 1995.
- Intervention effect Imidacloprid treated potato plots had few beetle larvae in both years.
- Intervention effect Insecticide strategies other than endosulfan significantly increased estimated management returns relative to the untreated check.
- Observation Permethrin produced the greatest management returns.
- Observation Cryolite produced the greatest management returns.
- Recommendation The authors recommend considering yield and insecticide cost as well as efficacy in potato pest management.
