economic importance

Notes: The objective of this study was to determine the influence of height level in a “nopaloteca” and the harvest index of carminic acid concentration (CAC, %) and fresh weight (FW, g) of D. coccus. Insect rearing was carried out in a wooden “nopaloteca” (3x3 m) with four height levels (0.5, 1.0, 1.50 and 2 m).
