Abstract

A field test was carried out on adult orange trees sprayed with flucycloxuron, propargite and bromopropilate to check their efficiency in controlling leprosis mite. Treatments used were: A) check; B) flucycloxuron, 10g; C) flucycloxuron, 15g; D) flucycloxuron, 20g; E) flucycloxuron, 30g; F) propargite, 72g; G) bromopropilate, 37,5g. Quantities indicated are grams of active ingredients per 100 liters of water. Control evaluations were made 2 days before and 7, 20, 34 and 50 days after spraying. Treatments of propargite and bromopropilate turned out to be the most efficient. Treatments B, C, D, E were not efficient at all.
