Abstract


The efficacy of Neem Azal®-T/S (1% Azadirachtin A) was field-evaluated during 2002 in olive tree orchards. The research was carried out in Idlib, northwest of Syria. Two concentrations (0.3% and 0.5%) of Neem Azal®-T/S were used against Euphyllura olivin Costa (Homoptera: Psyllidae) and Prays oleellus (Lepidoptera: Yponomeutidae), as well as one concentration (0.15%) of Roger® (40% Dimethoate), at two date of applications. Results showed that Neem Azal®-T/S at a rate of 0.5% was highly effective on larvae of P. oleellus and on nymphs of E. olivin, and is the most appropriate insecticide to be recommended for integrated pest management of both insects. Although Dimethoate effectively control led P. oleellus larvae, it was harmful to its parasitoids. Using natural pesticides, such as Azadirachtin A, was beneficial in producing healthy food with no chemical residues, cost-effective, preserved the natural enemies of insect pests, and less polluting to the environment.
