Colorado potato beetle<br />
and aphids – threatening,<br />
but manageable<br />
A threat to potato crops throughout<br />
the world: the Colorado potato beetle<br />
(Leptinotarsa decemlineata)<br />
Along with leaf diseases, pests represent a serious risk<br />
for potato growers around the world: they can reduce<br />
tuber quality significantly, and, at worst, they can destroy<br />
entire harvests – that is, if they aren’t stopped in time.<br />
The danger can be managed through preventative<br />
measures and with the aid of effective <strong>Bayer</strong> products<br />
such as Biscaya ® and Proteus ® .<br />
