Abstract

This trial was performed at Bonilla Farm, plot 4, owned by Agroindustrial Los Prados, in San Jerónimo village, Namasigüe, Choluteca, southern Honduras, from late March to mid-May 2021. Harper melon, Capaz hybrid, by Enza Zaden, was transplanted on March 17 and covered with agribon or thermal cloth. Right in front of this planting area was a plot of Harper Melon being harvested with lots of weeds and a huge population of whiteflies constantly moving from that plot and also from abandoned watermelon plots located upwind, in East direction.
