Answer 2

This is an usual problem when temperature is slightly high in potato growing areas. These aphids  feeds on plants & harms in direct way as well as it transmits some stubborn viruses to the crops, such as PV-Ym PV-X, and so on.

Explanation:

To save his crop from huge attack and yield loss, the farmer

• Plant "certified disease-free seed"
• If possible cultivation done under "protected structure" may be practiced.
• Production timing can be manipulated such that potato may be dehaulmed/harvested before high time of "emergence of aphids".
• Although "chemical control" is there, however, it would become very costly, "non-environment-friendly" & some time not "effective" also.
• Plant "borders" around seed potato fields,  & possibly work with "local agro-consultants to select plants which would not be harmed by "PVY-depositing aphids".
• Judiciously choose & apply pesticides because aphids are  vulnerable to "biological control" agents like "ladybugs".
• Keep weeds at bay & add flowering plants to borders because several "beneficial insects" prey heavily on aphids.
