Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book targets a pervasive problem facing farmers: the locust borer and its detrimental impact on black locust tree plantations. The author draws on findings from a seven-year study to outline how the locust borer operates, its life cycle, and how to combat its effects, especially in plantations where black locust trees are grown to prevent soil erosion. The author emphasizes that tree vigor is linked to the severity of borer damage and suggests silvicultural methods to improve growing conditions and reduce susceptibility to borer injury. These methods include clear-cutting, thinning, mulching, and mixed planting. Beyond silvicultural methods, the book also discusses natural enemies of the locust borer, such as woodpeckers, and chemical control options, making this a comprehensive guide to protecting black locust plantations from this damaging pest.
