Intervention effect Larval feeding by Hypera postica reduced both the yield and quality of first cutting alfalfa.
Association Yield declined linearly over most of the larval population range of alfalfa weevil.
Observation The loss per larva and the smallest larval density causing maximum yield reduction depend on alfalfa plant size at attack.
