Abstract
Applications of 40% cyrolite, 5% DDT, and 5% chlordan were effective in controlling the cowpea curculio. A 5% dichlorodiphenyl-dichlorethane dust was almost as effective as the cryolite dust. 1% parathion and 5% chlorinated camphene dusts were also promising as controls for the cowpea curculio on black eye peas. Benzene hexachloride and Ryania dusts are of no value as controls of the cowpea curculio.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
