Abstract/Contents: | "Swards of Italian ryegrass were sown at intervals in each of two years and the populations of pests they harboured were assessed. Frit-fly larvae (e.g. Oscinella frit) were the only known pest species detected in significant numbers. They were absent from sowings made in April, September and October and their numers varied markedly between sowings made at intervening times. Herbage yield response to pesticide application was greatest when high numbers of frit-fly larvae coincided with slow seedling growth, i.e. in swards sown in July and August. The need for pesticide use at other times seems dubious." |
