Bibliographic Details
Summary:The olive fruit fly,. Bactrocera oleae (Gmelin) is a major pest of olives in the Mediterranean region. Present control methods against this pest rely on the use of wide spectrum organophosphorous insecticides. However, in the light of modern integrated pest control, insecticidal control should always be justified by a cost benefit study based on an accurate assessment of crop losses.
