| dc.description | Integrated management of the Retracrus elaeis Keifer mite in oil palm cultivation is essential to reduce damage and infestations caused by this pest, thus guaranteeing good productivity and quality of fruits and production. This mite causes serious problems, such as leaf reduction and defoliation, as well as a decrease in fruit production, which significantly impacts farmers' profitability. To control this mite and minimize damage to oil palm plantations, an approach has been adopted that involves a combination of various strategies and controls. Biological control is one of the key strategies, based on the use of natural enemies for the mite. In addition, cultural practices such as proper pruning and weed control are implemented, which contribute to preserving the productivity and resistance of oil palm plants. Regarding chemical control, the selective use of chemical products is used, such as specific acaricides for this mite, guaranteeing that they are safe for the environment and following the recommendations and considering the environmental impacts. The Retracrus elaeis mite causes considerable damage to oil palm plantations, feeding on the foliage of the palms and causing the appearance of dark, oily spots on the leaves, which evolve into an intense orange mottling. This feeding weakens the leaves and reduces their photosynthesis capacity, also affecting fruit production and causing a decrease in palm oil production. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | El manejo integrado del ácaro Retracrus elaeis Keifer en el cultivo de palma aceitera es fundamental para reducir los daños e infestaciones causados por esta plaga, garantizando así una buena productividad y calidad de los frutos y la producción. Este ácaro provoca graves problemas, como la reducción y defoliación foliar, así como la disminución en la producción de frutos, lo que impacta significativamente la rentabilidad de los agricultores. Para controlar este ácaro y minimizar los daños en las plantaciones de palma aceitera, se ha adoptado un enfoque que implica la combinación de diversas estrategias y controles. El control biológico es una de las estrategias clave, basado en la utilización de enemigos naturales para el ácaro. Además, se implementan prácticas culturales como la adecuada poda y el control de malezas, que contribuyen a conservar la productividad y la resistencia de las plantas de palma aceitera. En cuanto al control químico, se recurre al uso selectivo de productos químicos, como acaricidas específicos para este ácaro, garantizando que sean seguros para el medio ambiente y siguiendo las recomendaciones y considerando los impactos ambientales. El ácaro Retracrus elaeis causa daños considerables en las plantaciones de palma aceitera, alimentándose del follaje de las palmas y provocando la aparición de manchas oscuras y aceitosas en las hojas, que evolucionan hacia un moteado anaranjado intenso. Esta alimentación debilita las hojas y reduce su capacidad de fotosíntesis, afectando también la producción de frutos y ocasionando una disminución en la producción de aceite de palma | es_ES |
