Abstract
Abstract Granular insecticide formulations were evaluated for control of SCR pod injury in cv. ‘NC 7’ Virginia-type peanut in Surry County, VA. Peanuts were planted using a 36-inch row spacing. All treatments were applied on 28 Jun (flowering) in a 14-inch band over the row with a bicycle-mounted Noble granular applicator. Treatments were lightly soil incorporated using cultivator sweeps in row middles. A randomized complete block experimental design was used with 4 replicates; plots were 4 rows by 40 ft. Pod injury was determined 16 Sep from 100 randomly selected pods per plot, taken from 5 plants per plot (20 pods/plant). Pods were categorized as undamaged, scarred (apparently superficial damage to the outer pod wall), and penetrated (pod wall penetrated). Yield was based on digging, combining (5 Oct), drying and weighing peanuts from the two center rows (80 row ft) of each plot. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and LSD statistical procedures.
