Abstract
AbstractThe sorghum aphid (Melanaphis sorghi), also known as the sugarcane aphid, has become a significant pest in the southern United States since its detection in Texas and Louisiana in 2013, now affecting 25 states and impacting sorghum yields. Management strategies, such as resistant cultivars and insecticide applications, are employed, but further research is needed to optimize these methods and evaluate the combined effects of insecticide application and planting dates on aphid control and sorghum yield. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of insecticide applications and planting dates on M. sorghi infestations and grain sorghum yield over three growing seasons in Tifton, GA.
