Abstract in English
Five insecticides were evaluated for controlling of almond seed wasp,
Eurytoma amygdali, the study was carried out at Al Fhaila – Homs. The
insecticides were Concord super, Karate zeon, Zenith, Lentrek and Desis
50.The results indicated that insecticides affected significantly the infestation,
Concord super caused the lowest infestation (2.66%) compared with the control
(39%) in (2009). In 2010, Karate zeon caused the lowest infestation (2.66%)
where it was (40%) in the control. The economic analysis indicated that
Concord super was the best because of its lowest cost and highest saving money
in secticide (5832.2) Sp., but Karate zeon was the least money-saving insechcide
(5525.4) Sp.
