The research carried out in the Aroneanu stationary, in 2023, in Iasi County, followed the appearance, abundance and dynamics of the existing invertebrate species in the goji culture, with a special reference to the most important and widespread pests identified during the period of observations.
With the help of Barber traps, individuals of different species can be continuously collected, regardless of the biotope. After collecting and identifying the species, assess the specific composition of the biocenosis, the seasonal variation and their cenotic preferences.
Sticky traps can be used both for monitoring pests and for their actual control. The use of this method of pests control and monitoring comes with certain advantages, they are ecological; they are easy to mount and use; does not leave residues or residues in the crop or on the fruit; reduce the number of treatments with insecticides; etc.
The research aimed to accurately identify the pests that impact or could potentially impact goji crops in the northeastern region of Moldova, as well as to calculate alpha biodiversity for comparing the biodiversity of various geographical areas or biological communities.
