Abstract


The experiments were carried out in Sharkia governorate during the cotton ýgrowing seasons of 1996 and 1997. Early planting was on March 7 in some fields, ýand late planting was carried out on April 10 in other fields. Mass trapping of pink ýbollworm Pectinophora gossypiella was done by pheromone traps at the ýbeginning of June at a rate of 4 traps/feddan as compared with 1 trap/5 feddans in ýother fields. The results obtained indicated that the early sowing of cotton seeds ýcould reduce the infestation rate by pink bollworm and reduce insecticides ýtreatment. Mass trapping with 4 traps/ feddan reduced infestation level better than ýusing one trap/ 5 feddans. It could be concluded that early planting date together ýwith intensive use of pheromone traps can protect the cotton green bolls from ýinfestation with pink bollworm attack, with reduction in insecticides use. ý
