Özet |
Landscape, wooded and grassy edges influence the abundance of crop pests and their natural enemies in agricultural systems. This study was conducted to determine the influence of wooded and grassy edges of soybean fields on the abundance of beneficial and pest arthropods. The study was conducted during 1993 and 1994 in Nebraska. In this study, pitfall traps were used to collect the arthropods. The study showed that Formicidae and Araneida were the most abundant arthropods near wooded edges. Most of the arthropods had a significant interaction between location of the pitfall traps and date. Mostly in June and August, arthropod taxa abundance varied depending on location of pitfall traps. Most predators were the most abundant under trees or in grassy edges while most pests were the most abundant in soybeans. |
