VEGETABLE EXTRACTS IN THE CONTROL OF THE BUTTON FLY

The present research book indicates the percentage of population incidence of the flower bud fly (Dasiops sp) in passion fruit (Passiflora ligularis; Juss., 1805) crops treated with rue, paico and higuerilla extracts. The paico extract showed greater efficacy after the first 15 days of evaluation with significant percentages. The results showed that the applications of plant extracts for the control of the flower bud fly in passion fruit have a statistically significant effect and are recommended for incorporation in Integrated Pest Management strategies in Pre Montane Tropical rainforest conditions (bp-PMT); reason for which the climate of the district is Dry Temperate (lower part) and Cold (upper part). In addition, the annual average is between 11° and 16 °C; thus there is drought in the upper part.
