Abstract
One of the main strategies used the application of controlling Sagalassa valida Walker (root borer) is chemical pesticides. The results presented here are part of a study carried out in an oil palm plantation from the municipality of Tumaco (Colombia). Four chemical treatments for controlling Sagalassa valida Walker were evaluated for a seven-month period. The results indicate that the treatments based on Tiametoxam + Lamdacyhalotrina and Profenofos + Lamdacyhalotrina reduce damage levels compared to other treatments evaluated. It must be highlighted that the Tiametoxam + Lamdacyhalotrina, treatment keeps acting on the field for more than seven months, if it is complemented with use of physical barriers Una de las alternativas de manejo más utilizadas para el control de Sagalassa valida Walker es la aplicación de pesticidas químicos. Los resultados que aquí se presentan son parte de un trabajo realizado en una plantación de palma de aceite del municipio de Tumaco (Colombia). Fueron evaluados cuatro tratamientos químicos para el control de S. valida en un período de siete meses. Los resultados indican que los tratamientos con base en Tiametoxam + Lamdacyhalotrina y Profenofos + Lamdacyhalotrina, disminuyen los niveles de daño con respecto a los otros tratamientos. Debe resaltarse que el tratamiento Tiametoxam + Lamdacyhalotrina, sigue actuando en el campo por un período superior a siete meses, si se complementa con el uso de barreras físicas.
