- Association Coffee weight losses were proportional to the berry borer attack rates.
- Observation The average coffee berry borer infestation rate was 5.64% in the first year.
- Observation Total production losses amounted to 2.60% in the first year.
- Observation Total production losses amounted to 3.18% in the second year.
- Observation Attack rates in the plots were generally low and varied considerably within a given agroclimatic zone.
- Association Plantations on plateau were more severely attacked than those in the plains.
- Method / resource A relationship between total losses and the cost of insecticide treatment was used to calculate an economic damage threshold beyond which control is cost effective.
