In conjunction with aerial applicators Timberlands Limited are trialling flow metering linked to GPS. If successful this will allow application rates to vary depending on the known plant pest infestation. Therefore rather than applying a rate to control the worst infested areas across the entire site, lower rates can be applied to areas of lower infestation. This will lead to less active ingredient being applied to the site.Alternative Trial:YesAlternative Type:Good management practiceMethod:ReductionPest Type:Weed

Timberlands Limited have trialled different rates on the many weed species and infestation levels. This has allowed Timberlands Limited to best select the herbicide and rates for the control required. In most cases this has lead to an active ingredient rate being applied lower than recommended by the pesticide manufacturer and label detail. It should be noted that the rate of Terbuthylazine has reduced from around 20l/ha to between 12 and 15 l/ha over the past 15 years. These trials are continuing in conjunction with the flow metering and Callisto trials.Alternative Trial:YesAlternative Type:Good management practiceMethod:ReductionPest Type:Weed

The system of delivery still poses some challenges and immigration of fertile animals from non-treated areas may compensate for treatment effects. Population models indicated that fertility control can be effective where population reduction does not have to be as rapid as lethal techniques, or where the objective is to maintain a population at low levels established previously with exclusion or lethal techniques. Fertility control is not likely to be useful for short-term, localized management of browsing damage, e.g. during the establishment phaseAlternative Trial:NoAlternative Type:Specific strategyMethod:ReplacementPest Type:Animal

Subspecies of B.t. control certain types of pest insect effectively. Commercial products for control of lepidopteran defoliating insects are usually based on Bacillus thuringiensis subspecies kurstaki, or Bacillus thuringiensis subspecies aizawai (Van Driesche et al 2008). Using B. thuringiensis subspecies kurstaki is a suitable method for controlling Thyrinteina arnobia if predatory and parasitic insects are to be preseserved. B.t. is equally effective as insecticides (Pereira 2007). For the integrated management of Thyrinteina, its occurrence and population densities need to be monitored. Biopesticides based on B. thuringiensis are only effective when applied to larval stages of pest insects at appropriate times. B.t. can be combined with a chemical insecticide (Zanuncio et al 1992). But if applied in time B.t. is effective on its own.A combination of Beauveria bassiana (strain GHA) and Bacillus thuringiensis subspecies tenebrionis increased mortality of Colorodo beetle larvae (Coleoptera) synergistically (Wraight & Ramos 2005), This approach of combining B.t. and Beauveria bassiana merits to be tested also on Costalimaita.Alternative Trial:NoAlternative Type:Specific strategy - BiocontrolMethod:ReductionPest Type:Insect
