Symposium on corn borers and control measures
1988
There is great potential for second crop maize production in the Mediterranean which includes Cukurova, Antalya and Aegean regions. However, the production is limited by Corn Borers, Ostrinia nubilalis and Sesamia spp. Borer damage has also been reported in Black Sea region where major maize production is taking place. Evidence from experimental plantings in Sanhurfa indicates that borers are also present in GAP area too. The National Maize Research Program has made considerable efforts on biological and chemical control measures for these insects. Besides, some other research institutions, such as Plant Protection and Agricultural Faculties are also working on the same subject.
