Sampling for the Sugarcane Borer (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) on Sugarcane in Louisiana

H. P. Schexnayder; T. E. Reagan; D. R. Ring Journal of Economic Entomology 2001. doi:10.1603/0022-0493-94.3.766

Other claims from this paper (6)

Observation Sugarcane borer infestations were randomly dispersed.
Observation Infestation levels ranged from 0.6 to 33.3%.
Method / resource The Poisson distribution best fit the infested-stalk frequency data.
Method / resource The plan with 2 and 5% limits required a maximum average 7.1 20-stalk samples.
Method / resource The plan with 5 and 10% limits required a maximum average 5.5 20-stalk samples.
Recommendation The authors estimated implementing these plans would reduce sampling effort by 50-60%.
