Abstract

Abstract Three different insecticide treatments were used to control WIC on Little Texas Plantation, Napoleonville, LA. Treatments were randomly assigned to plots (ca. 2-3.5 acres each) according to a RCBD with 4 replications. Plots were treated on 11 Jul, when a heavy field-wide infestation of WIC (Avg = 18 per 3rd leaf below the whorl on 10 Jul) was producing copious amounts of honeydew on which sooty mold was beginning to develop. Treatments were applied using an AG Cat flying swaths of 54 ft delivering 2 gpa finished formulation. On 14, 18 and 26 Jul, the total numbers of WIC and YSA (18 and 26 Jul only) on the 3rd leaf down from the 1st visible dewlap of 20 to 30 plants were recorded.
