COOPERATIVE ECONOMIC INSECT REPORT 



ESTIMATED LOSSES AND PRODUCTION COST ATTRIBUTED TO 



INSECTS AND RELATED ARTHROPODS - 1970 



Introduc tion 



Prior to 1966, insect loss estimates were published in the Cooperative Economic 

 Insect Report as individual reports. An attempt has been made for the sixth year 

 to condense loss estimates from various States into a single report. This gives a 

 more meaningful and better overall picture of the crop losses. The data have been 

 compiled from the crop loss estimates submitted from 15 States. The entomologists 

 submitting the 1970 estimates are listed below.
