Abstract
Surveys made in the Salt River Valley of Arizona in 1954-57 indicate that cultural practices, such as shortening the period alfalfa IS grown on the same land and rotation with cotton or other cultivated crops, will reduce grasshopper populations in alfalfa. They also suggest that weed control would aid in controlling populations in alfalfaThis publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
