Description: The effects of air speeds used for pneumatic control of Colorado Potato Beetles (CPB), Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), on three different varieties of potato plants (Superior, Norland, and Kennebec) were evaluated. Plant samples were ex posed to airstreams of different velocities in the 12.5 to 31 m/s range at three different stages of growth for 20 s. Results show that young potato plants, 0.40 m tall or less (less than 12 leaves), can tolerate airflows of up to 27.5 m/s without suffering any visual injury.
