Abstract
Large-scale production procedures and conditions were used to evaluate 3 diets for rearing Anthonomus grandis grandis Boheman. The Gast diet produced more adults at a lower cost than the other 2; however, with the Gast diet, adults were smallest and percent egg hatch was lowest. The high gossypol diet produced the largest adults and highest percent egg hatch. Yields of adults were lowest and cost per 1000 adults was highest with cottonseed flour diet.
