Response of Whitefly Population to Rabbit Urine Foliar Spray on Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.)

This book is a report of three different experiments conducted to determine the performance of rabbit urine foliar spray in controlling whitefly populations in tomato production. The findings of this research work give a greenlight on the use of rabbit urine as a safer and reliable alternative in whitefly control. Tomato farmers often use synthetic pesticides to control whiteflies in their farms. However, these pesticides are harmful to human health, the environment and the natural enemies of whiteflies. Moreover, whiteflies develop resistance over time against these pesticides, hence rendering whitefly chemical control ineffective. In this study, the best performing dilution level of rabbit urine foliar spray was established.
