Insecticides outweigh rye cover crop in triggering secondary pest outbreaks

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 12, Page 7971-7984, December 2025.
Insecticides outweigh rye cover crop in triggering secondary pest outbreaks. Zeus Mateos‐Fierro*, Ashley Leach, Ian Kaplan. Spider mite and melon aphid outbreaks are enhanced with broad‐spectrum insecticides, while natural enemies are reduced. However, rye cover crop has little effect on either pest or natural enemy populations.
