Description

On the basis of three-year investigations con­ducted in the County of Karl-Marx-Stadt, an outline is given of both the economic impor­tance and control of Amaurosoma spp. Special emphasis is laid on the factors that influence abundance and infestation, on the damage from larval eating on the false spikes, on seed losses, and on the results of experiments for chemical control. Furthermore, the possibili­ties are discussed that exist for limiting infesta­tion levels by tillage and crop husbandry ope­rations on the transition to industrial methods of production in socialist agriculture.
