Abstract

A trial to control the bean leaf beetle Diabrotica speciosa and the beanleafhopper Empoasca kraemeri was carried out in Goiânia, Goiás, Brazil. The treatments and dosage of the insecticides per hectare were: Imidacloprid (105g a.i.), Betacyflutrin (5.0, 6.0 and 6.25 g a.i.), Methamidophos (480 g a.i.) and an untreated check. The results obtained in this experiment showed that all insecticides were efficient in controlling the bean leaf beetle and beanleafhopper in bean crops, at all dosages tested.

KEY-WORDS: Insecta: pest control; bean crops.
