Bulletin of University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca: Horticulture(2008)
Abstract
Pheromonal control of the codling moth, Cydia pomonella L, by an experimental and formulation were carried out during two years (2006-2007) at the Fruit Research Station Cluj, Ro mania. The experimental product formulated by the researchers of the Chemical Research Institute Raluca Ripa n- Romania, contains the pheromone of the codling moth (E,E-8,10 dodecadien-1-ol) and a synthetic pyrethr oid insecticide (cyfluthrin) in order to be compatible with the attract and kill biotechnique. The experim ental product was applied in a rate of 4000 droplets per hectare with a hand operated pump dispenser. Field trials i n 2006 and 2007 showed that this environmental friendly strate gy can compete with the conventional spray applicat ion of insecticides and can provide a good alternative for codling moth control in integrated pest management and fruit growing.
