Abstract (in English)

Pests play a major role in reducing agricultural yields and can cause significant damage to crops. The apple, one of the most consumed fruits in the world, is particularly vulnerable to various pests, with the codling moth being the most destructive. To control the apple codling moth, a study was conducted using a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications in 2024 at the research farm of the Faculty of Agriculture at Kabul University. In this study, insecticides such as carbaryl, chlorpyrifos, and acetamiprid were used. To determine the optimal timing for applying the insecticides, reputable weather websites were consulted, and the flowering of the trees was also taken into account based on the data obtained from these sources. In total, insecticides were used twice and data were collected. The results of the data analysis indicated no significant difference between the insecticides used; however, all applied insecticides showed significant differences compared to the control group. Overall, the findings of this research provide farmers with greater flexibility in choosing any of these three types of insecticides, with confidence that all three are effective.
