Economics of Trap Cropping for Sugarbeet Nematode Control
Journal of Sugarbeet Research, 2000The sugarbeet cyst nematode (SBCN), Heterodera schachtii Schmidt, is a major root parasite of sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.). It causes serious stand and yield reductions wherever sugarbeet is produced, particularly with fields located near refineries where sugarbeets have been grown consistently for many years.

Managing the Pepper Maggot (Diptera: Tephritidae) Using Perimeter Trap Cropping
Journal of Economic Entomology, 2003A perimeter trap crop barrier of hot cherry peppers, border-row insecticide applications, and a combination of the two management strategies were evaluated to see if they could protect a centrally located main crop of bell peppers from oviposition and infestation by the pepper maggot, Zonosemata electa (Say).

Evaluating Trap Crops for Diamondback Moth, Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae)
Journal of Economic Entomology, 2004Potential trap crops for the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae), were evaluated through a series of ovipositional preference and larval survival experiments in outdoor screenhouses in 2002 and 2003. Hosts examined as trap crops were glossy and waxy collards, Brassica oleracea L.

Bacterial Wilt Management in Muskmelonusing Perimeter Trap Cropping
2016Spotted and striped cucumber beetles transmit bacterial wilt by feeding on infected plants. Bacterial wilt is devastating to cucurbit crops, especially muskmelon. Frequent applications of insecticides are the main form of control against cucumber beetles.

Advances in techniques for trapping crop insect pests
2023Pest monitoring is a fundamental requirement of integrated pest management. To minimise and target the use of pesticides, it is necessary to know when insect pests are present within the crop and whether their densities warrant control. There are many designs of trap to monitor insect pests.

Potential of Trap‐Crop Radish for Fall Lamb Grazing
Journal of Production Agriculture, 1999After small grains are harvested as hay, grain, or silage in many irrigated areas it is possible to produce a second crop. Brassica species and radish (Raphanus sativus L.) establish quickly and produce high‐quality fall and winter forage. Recently, nematode‐resistant radish cultivars (trap crops) have become available and studies show that they are an

A Trap Crop + Insecticide Approach for Cucumber Beetle Management
2004Spotted and striped cucumber beetles not only cause feeding damage in Iowa cucurbit crops, but vector a bacterium that causes bacterial wilt. ‘Turks Turban,’ an ornamental gourd, was used alone and in combination with carbaryl as a trap crop for these pests in muskmelon.

A VARIETY OF TRAP CROPS, DISTRACTING FROM THE MAIN VEGETABLE CROPS
Trap crops are used to repel pests away from the main vegetables by luring harmful insects onto their own leaves and stems. Farmers may have to deal with pests on decoy crops - whether it is manual harvesting or disposal of infected plants — but at least the main vegetables will not be ...openaire +1 more source
