Abstract/Contents:"Leafhopper-planthopper control with insecticides among 5 harvest regimes of Coastal bermudagrass resulted in a 17.9% avg increase in yield. Yield increases among harvesting treatments varied from 3.6% in grass that was harvested most often (simulated close grazing) to 49.3% in grass that was harvested least often (cut once yearly). Generally, as harvest frequency decreased, leafhopper-planthopper populations increased and yield losses attributable to these insects increased. Therefore, frequent harvest is an effective means of population suppression of these pests. Differences were not detected among several parameters measured for grass quality, except for cellulose and moisture content, both of which were significantly higher in grass from insecticide treated plots. The detrimental effect of the leafhopper-planthopper complex on Coastal bermudagrass is reflected primarily in yield reduction rather than in reduced grass quality."
