1988
Marashi, A.
Sunn pest Eurygaster integreiceps Put. has been existing in Markazy province from ancient times. Its severe damage had been restricted to some limited parts of the province. In this article elongation of feeding period of the pest from wheat plant is discussed as an important factor reinforcing the pest population. This encourages us to insist on the early harvest procedures. In this regard, some laboratorial tests of the quality of the grain gathered by two-stage-harvest-method is showed to be used probably in the future for early harvest purpose as one of the procedures of cultural measures against the pest. Finally, the points of a nonchemical control method of sunn pest in the present condition are mentioned
