Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sugar-Cane Insects of Hawaii The acreage devoted to sugar-cane culture in the southern United States has increased rapidly in recent years. Some of the cotton lands, abandoned because of the depredations of the cotton boll weevil, are being planted to cane. New lands are being planted to the crop in the Rio Grande valley and in the reclaimed areas in the lower Mississippi valley. It is stated that quite an area of land in process of reclamation in the State of Florida will be planted to sugar cane. It is desirable that the experience obtained through investigations of insects injurious to sugar cane in the Hawaiian Islands be placed at the disposal of the planters in our Southern States in order that the sugar industry in those States may receive practical benefit therefrom. The Hawaiian planters are well provided with expert advice and have at hand numerous reports dealing with the subject, which latter, unfortunately, are not available for general distribution. This report is written primarily, therefore, for the information of our mainland planters. Acknowledgment should be made of the courtesies extended to the writer by the members of the entomological staff of the Hawaiian Sugar Planters' Association Experiment Station during his return visit to the Hawaiian Islands in March and April, 1909.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Insects of Cotton in Hawaii The present interest in the possibilities of cotton-growing in these islands required that some attention be given to the insects which affect the cotton plant, for whether the crop can be grown profitably or not will depend in large measure on the extent to which the yield is diminished or damaged by insect attacks. Although it has been more than seventy years since the first cotton was planted in the islands, its growing up to the present time has not been one of the agricultural industries, and one attempt at least to make it so was without success. For the past two or three years, however, three varieties of cotton, Sea Island, Caravonica, and Chinese, have been grown experimentally on the grounds of this station with remarkably promising results. While the damage to the yield by insects was by no means inconsiderable, it was easily demonstrated that cotton of a fine grade and large yield could be grown under favorable conditions. The writer desires to acknowledge the assistance received in the preparation of this bulletin from cc-workers in Honolulu and elsewhere, to whom he expresses his warm thanks.

This dust has a fungicidal value as, well as being a good insecticide. If fungous diseases are not a factor of importance a dust made up of 8 pounds of arsenate of lime and 92 pounds of hydrated lime will give good results against the potato beetle. Prairie provinces. - On the prairies, a dust composed of 1 part of arsenate of lime or Paris green to 10 parts of hydrated lime is recommended. In areas where there is no dew, white arsenic can be substituted for arsenate of lime and used at the same strength. In Alberta, arsenate of zinc has given excellent control when diluted with hydrated lime or ﬂour, at the rate of 1 to 10. Sprays of arsenate of lime or Paris green diluted in water as recommended for Eastern Canada can also be used with good results. British columbia. - Spray or dust with.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Sugar-Cane Leaf-Hopper in Hawaii Up to the present time, the sugar plantations have been particularly free from serious attacks of insect pests and dis ease. Because 'of this the planters are little acquainted with the insect life to be found in their cane fields. The cane-borer (sphenophorus obscuras Boisd.) has been the most destructive and for that reason the one most generally known. It is safe to say that the borer and the hopper will not be the only pests with which the planters will have to contend in the fu ture. With the profits of the sugar industry decreasing it will be necessary to study more closely the various insect pests of the cane, and'there is demand on the part of the planters for practical, untechnical information regarding them. The pres ent paper is written with this fact in mind. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Edible insects have always been a part of human diets, but in some societies there remains a degree of disdain and disgust for their consumption. Although the majority of consumed insects are gathered in forest habitats, mass-rearing systems are being developed in many countries. Insects offer a significant opportunity to merge traditional knowledge and modern science to improve human food security worldwide. This publication describes the contribution of insects to food security and examines future prospects for raising insects at a commercial scale to improve food and feed production, diversify diets, and support livelihoods in both developing and developed countries. It shows the many traditional and potential new uses of insects for direct human consumption and the opportunities for and constraints to farming them for food and feed. It examines the body of research on issues such as insect nutrition and food safety, the use of insects as animal feed, and the processing and preservation of insects and their products. It highlights the need to develop a regulatory framework to govern the use of insects for food security. And it presents case studies and examples from around the world. Edible insects are a promising alternative to the conventional production of meat, either for direct human consumption or for indirect use as feedstock. To fully realise this potential, much work needs to be done by a wide range of stakeholders. This publication will boost awareness of the many valuable roles that insects play in sustaining nature and human life, and it will stimulate debate on the expansion of the use of insects as food and feed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last four decades of the twentieth century the use of sweetpotato was diversified beyond their classification as subsistence, food security, and famine-relief crop. In developing countries they serve both as human food and for feeding livestock. In Western countries they appeal to health conscious consumers because of their nutritional aspects. The sweetpotato is very high in nutritive value, and merits wider use on this account alone. The book has 2 parts. A general one giving up-to-date information on the history, botany, cultivars, genetic engineering, propagation, diseases and pests, nutritional data and marketing; and a second part presenting data on sweetpotato growing practices in different areas of the world. The information should be useful to researchers, practitioners and crop administrators in different countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As well as examining successful biological control programmes this book analyses why the majority of attempts fail. Off-target and other negative effects of biological control are also dealt with. Chapters contributed by leading international researchers and practitioners in all areas of biological control afford the book a breadth of coverage and depth of analysis not possible with a single author volume. Combined with the use of other experts to review chapters and editorial oversight to ensure thematic integrity of the volume, this book provides the most authoritative analysis of biological control published. Key aspects addressed include how success may be measured, how successful biological control has been to date and how may it be made more successful in the future. With extensive use of contemporary examples, photographs, figures and tables this book will be invaluable to advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as being a `must' for all involved in making biological control successful.
