Este trabalho objetivou avaliar o impacto financeiro do uso de níveis de controle (NC) e faixas circundantes na cultura de tomate em cultivos de primavera-verão e de inverno-primavera. As espécies usadas nas faixas circundantes foram: Crotalaria juncea, guandu, milho e sorgo. O ataque de minadores de folhas foi semelhante nas duas épocas de cultivo. Os ataques de broqueadores aos ápices caulinares e aos frutos foram 443 e 45% maiores no cultivo de primavera-verão do que no de inverno-primavera, respectivamente. O uso de NC reduziu de 25 a 87% as aplicações de inseticidas e em 20% o custo de produção. A adoção de NC + faixas de cultivo reduziu em 37% o custo de produção e possibilitou a ocorrência de maiores populações de Hymenoptera predadores, principalmente no cultivo de inverno-primavera. O tratamento que apresentou as maiores produtividades e rentabilidade econômica, além de proporcionar a maior redução nas aplicações de inseticidas, foi o uso de faixa de cultivo com sorgo + NC.Palavras-chave: Lycopersicon esculentum, níveis de controle, faixas de cultivo, época de plantio.ABSTRACT. Financial impacts by the adoption of integrated pest management in tomato crop. This work aimed to evaluate the financial impact of the use of action level and surrounding crop strips on the tomato cultivated during spring-summer and winterspring. The species used in the surrounding strips were Crotalaria juncea, pigeon pea, corn, and sorghum. Leafminers attack was similar in the two cultivation seasons. The attacks of borer insects in the stem apexes and fruits were larger 443 and 45% in the spring-summer cultivation than in the winter-spring cultivation, respectively. The action levels used decreased 25 to 87% of the insecticide applications and it decreased the production cost in 20%. The use of action level + surrounding strips reduced the production cost in 37% and increased Hymenoptera predator populations, mainly in the winter-spring cultivation. Sorghum surrounding strip + action levels was the best treatment because it showed the largest productivity and economic profitability, besides leading to the greatest reduction in insecticide applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
