Spotted Alfalfa Aphid Said
To Hit Oregon Next Spring
The spotted alfalfa aphid could
well become a western crop
scourge, according to H. M. Arm!
'age, chief entomologist of the Cali
fornia Agriculture Department. It
is the worst insect plague to hit
the state since 1886, Al milage says.
In a recent interview the agri
culturist stated: "It could put alf
alfa men out of business unless
they are willing to spend the mon
ey for its control."
Estimated damage to this year's
crops has been estimated at SI, 200,.
000 and Armitage predicted dam
ages could run as high as S13.000,
000 next year unless some meas
ure of control is found.
Such insecticides as Parathion.
Malathion and Systox will control
the greenish black spotted aphid,
but as the cost of such spraying
is about $3 per acre and the neces
sjty for spraying each crop of alf
alfa cut, the costs become prohibitive.
