Management of Carrot fly

12/11/2018Posted on

Management of Carrot fly:-

Damage –

  • The flies lay their eggs around the developing carrots.
  • Crop damage is caused by the creamy-yellow larvae (maggots) feeding on the outer layers of the carrot root. In autumn, they may penetrate further into the root.
  • The legless larvae are up to 10 mm in length.
  • Foliage becomes wilted and discoloured.
  • Leaves turn rusty red to scarlet with some yellowing. Rusty-brown tunnels are seen under the outer skin of mature roots.

 

Management –

  • Maintaining a 3–5-year crop rotation of all crops within the carrot family (Apiaceae), and locating these crops as far away as possible from the previous year’s crop.

  • Row cover is another method of exclusion.

  • Spray profenophos 50 EC @ 400 ml/acre.

  • Spray quinolphos 25 EC @ 300 ml/acre.
