Abstract

Lucerna je jedna od najraširenijih krmnih kultura, a broj štetočinja koji smanjuju prinos voluminozne krme i sjemena lucerne vrlo je velik. S obzirom na sve veći trend uklanjanja pesticida s tržišta, veću pažnju treba obratiti na ekološki prihvatljive načine suzbijanja tih štetočinja. Jedan od takvih načina je i očuvanje već postojećih prirodnih neprijatelja, odnosno korisne faune koja zahtjeva određene uvjete za rast i razvoj. Korisna fauna je skup životinjskih organizama koji imaju izravan ili neizravan pozitivan utjecaj na kultivirane biljne vrste. Cilj ovog rada je bio prikazati korisnu faunu u usjevu lucerne na pokušalištu Šašinovec Agronomskog fakulteta u Zagrebu u razdoblju od veljače do srpnja, tijekom 2019. godine. Za utvrđivanje brojnosti populacija korisnih organizama korištene su metode „pitfall“ trap, endogejski trap, entomološka mreža te vizualni pregled. Tijekom razdoblja istraživanja utvrđeno je ukupno 10 porodica korisnih kukaca i dva reda korisnih člankonožaca u usjevu lucerne. Najprisutnija porodica korisne faune bili su trčci te redovi pauka i stonoge.

Abstract (english)

Alfalfa is one of the most widespread forage cultures and the number of pests that reduce voluminous feed and seed of alfalfa is quite large. Considering all the greater trend of removing pesticides from market, it is important to keep in mind the ecologically acceptable ways of pest repelling. One way of doing that is preservation of already existing natural enemies, or beneficial fauna that demands certain conditions for growth and development. Beneficial fauna is a group of animal organisms that can directly or indirectly affect cultivated plants in a positive way. A main goal of this research was to show beneficial fauna in alfalfa on experiment grounds Šašinovec of University of Zagreb - Faculty of Agriculture during February, March, April, May and June in 2019. Pitfall trap, endogean trap, entomological net, and visual examination methods were used to determine quantity of beneficial fauna. During this research, 10 families and 2 orders of useful fauna in alfalfa were found and shown in tables and graphs.
