Key Points

This research aims to evaluate the efficacy of various insecticides against the pest Singapora shinshana and to identify labor-saving application techniques.
Field experiments in Japanese apricot orchards using 9 insecticides through manual spraying with a motorized sprayer and labor-saving methods using sprinklers or multi-rotors.
Effectiveness was measured at 3, 7, and 14 days after application for both manual and automated methods.
Permethrin, fulburethrin, fenpropathrin, acetamiprid, and dinotefuran showed significant effectiveness against Singapora shinshana at measured intervals.
Acetamiprid applied via sprinkler or multi-rotor demonstrated effectiveness comparable to manual spraying with a motorized sprayer.

Examines insecticide efficacy and labor-saving techniques in Japanese apricot orchards, suggesting improved pest management methods.
