Abstract

The contact and ingestion activity and the potential of the insecticide spinosad for the control of sugar beet weevil were evaluated and compared with commercially used insecticides lambda-cyhalothrin and chlorpyriphos + cypermethrin. Results of three laboratory trials proved very good efficacy of spinosad applied at the dose of 72 g a.i./ha. Its efficacy was similar to chlorpyriphos + cypermethrin and significantly higher than that of lambda-cyhalothrin. Due to its favourable eco-toxicological properties and good ingestion activity, spinosad is a good candidate to be introduced in the integrated pest management strategy against beet weevil.
