Abstract
Long-term results of pheromone monitoring of the codling moth Cydia pomonella L. in the ecological orchard agroecosystem were analyzed to clarify the flight period of each pest generation. The flights of the overwintered and the first summer generations overlapped by about 20 days; those of the first and second summer generations overlapped by about 25 days. The biological characteristics of the codling moth can be used to determine the optimal timing of protective measures, taking into account the temperature data and the phenophases of apple trees. In this way, the number of pesticide treatments in the orchard can be reduced to 4–6 during the growing season.
