This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of mulberry leaf mixed diet on larval growth of Protaetia brevitarsis. As a result of adding mulberry leaves to oak fermented sawdust, the survival rate of P. brevitarsis larvae were higher than those of the control when mass rearing larvae. When fed oak fermented sawdust with 5%, 10% and 20% of mulberry leaves, the cumulative proportion of larvae over 2.5g was 93.1% at 65 days, 95.6% at 55 days, and 93.9% at 55 days after rearing at 25±1℃, respectively. Also, heavy metals were not detected in larvae of P. brevitarsis fed on mulberry leaves.

This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of mulberry cake mixed diet on larval growth of Protaetia brevitarsis. As a result of adding mulberry cake to oak fermented sawdust and mulberry fermented sawdust, the survival rate of P. brevitarsis larvae were higher than those of the control when mass rearing larvae. When fed oak fermented sawdust with 3, 5% and 10% of mulberry cake, the cumulative proportion of larvae over 2.5g was 92.9% at 65 days, 90.8% at 55 days, and 96.3% at 45 days after rearing at 25±1℃, respectively. When fed mulberry fermented sawdust with 3%, 5% and 10% of mulberry cake, the cumulative proportion of larvae over 2.5g was 86.2% at 85 days, 90.7% at 75 days, and 91.5% at 75 days after rearing at 25±1℃, respectively.

2017년부터 2018년까지 전북지역 오디 생산용 뽕나무에 발생하는 주요 해충의 발생 양상과 유기농업자재에 의한 뽕나무이 방제 효과를 조사하였다. 부안과 익산지역을 중심으로 수확 전 발생하는 주요 해충은 뽕나무이, 미국흰불나방, 뽕나무명나방, 노린재류, 꽃매미 6종이었으며 수확 후에는 미국흰불나방, 뽕나무명나방, 총채벌레, 미국선녀벌레, 노린재류 등 5종이 발생하였다. 또한 오디 생산용 뽕나무 재배시 가장 문제가 되는 병해충인 균핵병과 뽕나무이를 동시에 친환경적으로 관리하기 위해서는 데리스 추출물(데리스 90%) 250배와 황토유황 500배를 혼합하여 처리하는 것이 방제효과 97.6%로 효과적이었다. 선발된 유기농업자재에 효과적인 처리시기는 4월 상·중순이며, 7일 간격으로 3회 방제하면 94% 이상의 방제효과가 있고 약해도 발생하지 않아 유기농업자재를 이용한 뽕나무이의 친환경방제가 가능할 것으로 판단되었다.
