Objective: To evaluate the economic impact of sorghum aphid (Melanaphis sacchari) and the sorghum crop profitability in Western Puebla, Mexico, considering the management practices application-index (IAPM), related to the control practices suggested by the State Plant Health Committee (CESAVEG). Design/Methodology/Approach: Data on socioeconomic aspects of the producer and the production units were collected. The questionnaire was applied to producers affiliated to PROAGRO. Results are shown using descriptive statistics. Results: The aphid infestation in sorghum had its most relevant effect on yield during 2014-2016. Income obtained from sorghum sales is decreasing due to a downward trend in the purchase price per ton. After the arrival of ...
