Abstract
Abstract Sweet corn was planted on 15 Jul at the Snyder Research and Extension Farm, Pittstown, NJ. Treatment plots were replicated 4 times in a randomized complete block design and consisted of 4 rows, 50 ft long on 3 ft centers with 9 inches between plants. Buffers were 12 ft driveways, two additional rows between adjacent plots, and 5 ft between plots within rows. Standard cultural practices were used throughout the trial. Treatments were applied on 11, 14, 19, and 25 Sep with the exception of two treatments (Dipel 2X + Kinetic—two early; Agree + Kinetic—two early) which were initiated on 8, 10 Sep when 0.01% of the plants were beginning to silk. A tractor-mounted, PTO-driven diaphragm pump, boom sprayer was equipped with 4 hollow-cone drop nozzles per row directing the spray to the ear zone. Sprayer was calibrated to deliver 73.5 gal/acre at 60 psi. Plots were evaluated on 29 Sep by examining 25 primary ears harvested from the middle 40 ft of the middle 2 rows of each replicate. All larvae or larval damage in or on the ear was identified and counted.
