Abstract
Epigeic carabid beetles are potential enemies of plant pests. In this study, indirect influence of chemical protection in integrated potato management on carabids was investigated. Obtained result was compared with an organic field. The study was conducted in Winna Góra near Środa Wielkopolska from 19. May to 8. September 2008. Two potato fields were selected: one with organic and one with integrated-management cultivation system . Ten Barber traps were placed on each field. In total, 2.889 specimens representing 32 species (Carabide family) were captured. Harpalus rufipes was the dominating species (approx. 50%). No significant negative impact on beneficial ground beetles assemblages of pesticides was found.
