본 연구는 유기농 배추재배지에 발생하는 주요해충 4종에 대한 살충효과가 잘 알려진 중 3종의 살충효과를 조사하기 위해 수행되었다. 좁은가슴입벌레 유충에 대해 BT+Matrine+Neem 혼합처리의 방제효과가 가장 높게 나타났으며, 가장 낮은 처리농도인 0.05%에서도 94.1%의 살충효과를 보였다. 3종의 를 단독으로 처리한 것보다 두 종류(68.3~70.0%) 또는 세 종류(95.2%)의 를 혼합 처리하였을 경우에 배추흰나비 유충에 대한 살충효과가 더 높게 나타났다. 배추좀나방 3령 유충에 대한 Matrine, Neem, BT제 처리 효과도 단독처리에 비하여 혼합처리에서 90.0% 이상의 매우 높은 방제효과를 나타내었다. 따라서 BT, Neem, Matrine을 적절하게 혼합 처리할 경우 유기농 배추 재배지의 주요 해충을 방제하는데 유용할 것으로 판단된다.
This study focused on the promotion of the insecticidal activity of eco-friendly insecticidal materials against four major insect pest in the organic Chinese cabbage cultivation area. Among insecticidal materials mixture, BT+Matrine+Neem against leaf beetle larva, Phaedon brassicae, showed the highest 94.1% at 0.05% which is the lowest concentration of three treated concentrations. The insecticidal activity of Matrine, Neem, and BT alone (0.1%, w/v) or the mixtures (0.05%, w/v) against Cabbage worm larva, Artogeria rapae, was investigated by leaf disc spray method. The insecticidal efficacy of the mixtures of two or three eco-friendly materials was higher than the single treatment of each material with 94.3%, 100% and 100%. Control efficacy of 0.3% COY+0.05% (95.3%) against the green peach aphid, Myzus persicae was higher than that of 0.3% COY+0.05% Neem (90.2%) and lasted for more than 21 days after one time treatment. At 35 days after treatment, the effect of 0.05% BT+0.05% Matrine and 0.05% BT+0.05% Matrine+0.05% Neem treatments against diamondback moth showed very high insecticidal activity with more than 90% of control value. Therefore, BT, Neem, and Matrine where are properly treated could be effective eco-friendly materials for controlling major insect pests in an organic Chinese cabbage field.
