Title : Les mouches mineuses du genre Liriomyza (Diptera, Agromyzidae) à Maurice[Leaf miners of the genus Liriomyza (Diptera: Agromyzidae) in Mauritius]
Year of publication : 1993
Keywords : POTATOES; LIRIOMYZA; LIRIOMYZA TRIFOLII; PESTS; INSECT PESTS; PEST CONTROL; INTEGRATED CONTROL; MSIRI STAFF; ENTO; LIRIOMYZA HUIDOBRENSIS; LIRIOMYZA BRASSICAE; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Rajabalee, A.; Les mouches mineuses du genre Liriomyza (Diptera, Agromyzidae) à Maurice[Leaf miners of the genus Liriomyza (Diptera: Agromyzidae) in Mauritius]; 1993
Abstract : Three species of Liriomyza have been recorded in Mauritius namely L. brassicae, L. trifolii and L. huidobrensis. Potato which is cultivated in cane interrows or in full stand between cane crop cycles, has particularly been affected by L. trifolii and more recently up to a certain extent by L. huidobrensis. Insecticide treatments are carried out regularly and an integrated pest management strategy has been initiated to control these pests. The use of appropriate selective chemicals is recommended, taking into consideration their effect on the environment.

Citation : Soopramanien, G. C.; Nayamuth, A. R.; Batchelor, C. H.; Effect of water regime on yield of drip irrigated first ratoon cane intercropped with maize and groundnut; 1992
Abstract : Irrigating an inter-row cropping system particularly by the drip method offers a possible means of improving sugar yield with a concurrent increase in food crop production in the drier areas of Mauritius. In the present study, sole cane and cane intercropped with maize or groundnut were either rainfed or received full or half of their water requirements via driplines buried in between each pair of cane rows. It has been shown that maize re duces cane growth and yield and the effect is more pronounced under stress conditions. There are indications that cane can tolerate a certain amount of stress during the presence of the intercrop and recuperation is possible in the absence of water stress during the stalk elongation phase.

Title : Cement as an alternative to coral sand for liming acid soils
Year of publication : 1993
Keywords : SUGARCANE; LIMING; ACID SOILS; CORAL; CEMENT; SOIL MANAGEMENT; SOIL ACIDITY; LIMING MATERIALS; SOIL AMENDMENTS; MSIRI STAFF; CHEM; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Ng Kee Kwong, K. F.; Cavalot, P. C.; Deville, J.; Cement as an alternative to coral sand for liming acid soils; 1993
Abstract : Incubation of two acid soils with increasing rates of cement and coral sand showed that cement raised soil pH quicker than coral sand. However, provided that equivalent amounts of CaO are used, the long term effects of cement and coral sand on soil pH are identical. Apart from increasing available Si in soils, cement, in the same way as coral sand, improved the Ca status of soils without adversely affecting their available K, P and Mg status.

Title : Degree of rockiness as a soil condition affecting K availability to sugar cane
Year of publication : 1994
Keywords : SUGARCANE; POTASSIUM; SOILS; MSIRI STAFF; CHEM; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Pillay Samoo, K. D.; Degree of rockiness as a soil condition affecting K availability to sugar cane; 1994
Abstract : The effect of degree of rockiness (percentage soil greater than 2mm in size) upon the amount of K available to sugarcane was investigated in three Latosolic Reddish Prairie (LRP) soils differing in rockiness. The results showed that by not considering the amount of K in the greater than 2mm soil and analysing only the less than 2mm soil, we are in fact overestimating the real amount of K found in the soil. Hence correction factors to account for the degree of rockiness were determined and applied to the soil K values of the three sites as well as in selected PSUs found within each soil group. Comparison of the corrected soil K and leaf K value however showed that the correlation between these two parameters was improved in certain sites only.
