Book Description
Excerpt from Principal Insect Enemies of the Sugar Beet: In the Territories Served by the Great Western Sugar Company Some damage is done by some pest somewhere every year, causing some loss to individual farmers. Fortunately, we have been free so far from' pests damaging very large areas in any one year, and it is confidently hoped that this will always be the case in the territory served by this Com pany. Nevertheless, it seems wise to have on hand all the information necessary to enable growers to apply proper measures in case of emergency. There are available a number of bulletins and books published by the Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Colleges and others, dealing with insect pests damaging to sugar beets, but it has been thought of interest and value to beet growers to have this information presented in one book and with due regard to local conditions. While it is hoped that this Bulletin will be of valuable assistance to the grower of sugar beets by presenting the best known methods of pre venting injury and controlling insects which damage this crop, it seems desirable to impress upon him the fact that there is no magical method, no patent medicine, which can be quickly and easily applied.

Book Description
Field Crop Arthropod Pests of Economic Importance presents detailed descriptions of the biology and ecology of important arthropod pest of selected global field crops. Standard management options for insect pest control on crops include biological, non-chemical, and chemical approaches. However, because agricultural crops face a wide range of insect pests throughout the year, it can prove difficult to find a simple solution to insect pest control in many, if not most, cropping systems. A whole-farm or integrated pest management approach combines cultural, natural, and chemical controls to maintain insect pest populations below levels that cause economic damage to the crop. This practice requires accurate species identification and thorough knowledge of the biology and ecology of the target organism. Integration and effective use of various control components is often enhanced when the target organism is correctly identified, and its biology and ecology are known. This book provides a key resource toward that identification and understanding. Students and professionals in agronomy, insect detection and survey, and economic entomology will find the book a valuable learning aid and resource tool. Includes insect synonyms, common names, and geographic distribution Provides information on natural enemies Is thoroughly referenced for future research
