Cultural Control Practices
in Cotton Pest Management
in Tropical Africa
|
|
 Insect pests are a major constraint in cotton production
in Africa. The role of cultural practices, especially in the management
of cotton pests in Africa is examined. Some cultural practices
such as early planting after the closed season, stalk destruction
and resistant varieties have played an extremely vital role in the
management of some major cotton pests such as red bollworm (Diparopsis
castanea), pink bollworm (Pectinophora gossypiella) and
cotton jassid (Empoasca sp.) respectively.
