The influence of insecticides on the quality and quantity of oilseed rape
Journal Title: Rośliny Oleiste - Oilseed Crops - Year 2009, Vol 30, Issue 2
Abstract
Modern production systems incorporate many factors that can affect final yields of oilseed rape. Chemical control of insect pests together with effect against beneficial pollinators is an important element of this technology. Pollen beetle (Meligethes aeneus F.) is the main pest of oilseed rape in Poland; recommended insecticides for their control are neurotoxins from various chemical classes and these have differing effectiveness against this pest. These xenobiotics can influence beneficial insect behaviour, especially that of the honeybee (Apis mellifera L.) resulting in varying levels of pollination and hence varying yields of oilseed rape. This study considers oilseed rape protection when using insecticides from different chemical classes with varying toxicity against both pollen beetle and honeybee.
