Management of Lygus Bugs and Cabbage Seedpod Weevil in Canola

Researcher:

Dr. Hector Carcamo, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Lethbridge AB

Project Code:

CARP 2000-11

Final Report:

January 2002

Summary:

Lygus bugs and cabbage seedpod weevils are serious insect pests of canola in southern Alberta. In 2000 and 2001 a plot insecticide trial was conducted to develop a chemical management strategy for the two pests. Results from the study showed that a single spray application at late bud (bolting) or early pod stage provided similar yield protection to multiple applications.
