Effects of crop sanitation on banana weevil, Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), populations and crop damage in Uganda
Crop sanitation, i.e. destruction of crop residues, has been hypothesized to lower banana weevil damage by removing adult refuges and breeding sites. Although it has been widely recommended to farmers, limited data are available to demonstrate the efficacy of this method. The effects of...
