Abstract
Using chemical pesticides has adverse effects on the environment and humans. Bacterial preparations may provide an alternative to chemical pesticides. The study aims to test different combinations of sublethal concentrations of bacterial and chemical preparations against cabbage moth larvae. During 2020-2022 different combinations of sublethal concentrations of bacterial (Lepidocide) and chemical (Arrivo, Voliam Flexi, Proclaim Fit) preparations were tested in laboratory and field conditions, against cabbage moth young larvae (stage I-II). The combinations of insecticides with bacterial and chemical sublethal concentrations show high biological efficiency against the cabbage moth larvae. No statistical difference was found between the efficiency indicators of the combined and standard chemical (Arrivo, Voliam Flexi, Proclaim Fit) options and the significance level was generally between 2.0 and 5.9 %, showing that the results of the scientific experiments are reliable.
