“…Cultural practices such as winter sanitation in almond orchards reduced the need for midseason treatments of naval orangeworm (Amyelois transitella) (121), vegetative ground cover limited runoff of pesticides (61), and use of polyacrylamide, sediment traps, and vegetative ditch banks reduced the amount of contaminated sediment leaving a field (79). Improved application technology reduced pesticide drift (14, 70), and a shift to alternative pesticide products reduced risk to the environment (31, 44,80) and human health (46). In Europe, strategies related to IPM were implemented with varying success in reducing risk to farmland birds and biodiversity.…”

“…Larvele și adulții speciei pot fi controlați bine cu insecticide organofosforice, inclusiv carbamați și piretroizi. Cu toate acestea, apariția unor insecticide organofosforice în apele de suprafață, în special clorpirifos (Lorsban ®), care coincide cu perioada aplicării insecticidelor contra dăunătorului, pune accent pe găsirea mijloacelor alternative în gestionarea speciei H. postica (Long et al, 2002). Mai mult de atât, insecticidele piretroide au dezavantajul de a fi non-selective.…”

“…Some erosion also occurs during the last 15 to 20 feet of the field, where bare soil usually exists in alfalfa fields. In one study, suspended solids were measured in source and tail waters during alfalfa border check irrigation at fifteen sites (Long et al 2002). Tailwater was not found to be significantly degraded by sediment.…”
