The Comparison of Control Efficacy for 8 Insecticides Against Empoasca pirisuga Matumura
In order to screen the high-efficiency and low-toxicity agents that can be used to prevent Empoasca pirisuga Matumura,8 insecticides were selected to conduct the field efficacy test.The results showed 20%dinotefuran SG had the best control efficacy,the results were 72.34%,90.34%and 94.99%1,3 and 7 days after treatment respectively.25%diafenthiuron SC and 20%flonicamid SC had the second best control efficacy,the results were 89.88%and 86.06%7 days after treatment respectively.The rapid efficacy and persistence of 150 g/L indoxacarb EC,0.5%emamectin benzoate ME and 15%tolfenpyrad SC were not prominent.Although the 10%bifenthrin EW and 240 g/L chlorfenapyr SC had good rapid efficacy,their persistence were poor.Within the testing dosage,these eight insecticides were safe for tea trees.
