Abstract

Treatments of cucumber plant with jet application (foliar spray and root flood simultaneously) with Imidacloprid (Confidor 700 GRDA and Confidor 200 SC) eight days after plant germination were highly efficient in controlling the Thrips palmi (Karny) until 29 days after insecticides application, with 83% - 97% of efficiency. These results were superior to the data obtained with methamidophos (standard insecticide) applied in foliar spray weekly.

KEY-WORDS: Insecta; Thrips palmi; cucumber plant; chemical control.
