Abstract
Field-plot tests in New Delhi, India, in the summer of 1979 showed that a significantly greater number of eggs of Atherigona soccata Rond. were laid on sorghum seedlings emerging from seeds treated with 5% carbofuran than on seedlings emerging from untreated seeds. Damage was significantly lower in plots sown with only carbofuran-treated seeds, with 2 treated and one untreated rows, and with a 60:40 mixture of treated and untreated seeds. The potential of using treated rows to attract females for oviposition, kill the hatching larvae and protect adjacent untreated rows is discussed
