Description
Summary:The invasive species pose a threat to agriculture, the environment and public health; displacing native wildlife, reducing biodiversity and ecosystem services hurting. Of the total area planted in Ecuador (approx. 414.149 ha) about 48% are infested with the snail pest and total production (approx. 1706194 ton) 40% is lost due to heavy infestation, infested seedlings are consumed by 80 and 100% as explained local producers. In Ecuador, rice is the most important grain in food, where it occupies about 140,000 hectares to be planted. The research was raised with the aim of determining diets apple snail Pomacea canaliculata using rice leaves. This work was carried out on the premises of Mr, EfrainTroya located at Km 1 of the Road San Juan-Babahoyo, Canton Puebloviejo, Province of Los Ríos. We investigated eight sheets of rice diets with four replications, arranged in the form of small parcels to containers and placed in a small greenhouse distributed completely randomized design.
