Evaluation of Foliar Insecticides for Control on Insect Pests in Georgia Soybeans, 1989

Abstract Five insecticidal treatments were evaluated to determine their efficacy in controlling stink bugs, threecornered alfalfa hoppers, and velvetbean caterpillars in soybean. Soybeans were planted on 17 May to 36 inch rows in conventionally prepared seedbeds at the University of Georgia Bowen Research Farm in Tift County, GA. Individual plots were 4 rows wide by 50 ft with 6-ft alleys between replicates. A complete randomized block experimental design was utilized with 4 replications. Treatments were applied on 7 Sep with a CO2-powered compressed air sprayer, with 4 TX-12 nozzles on a 6 ft boom, at 35 psi and 17.2 gal of formulation per acre. Individual treatments were evaluated 4, 7, and 14 d after application, by comparing the number of stink bug pests (primarily southern green stink bugs and green stink bugs), threecornered alfalfa hoppers, and velvetbean caterpillars/25 sweeps in the treated plots to those in the untreated controls. A 15-inch diam net was passed through the foliage of a single row of each plot on each sampling date.

Evaluation of At-Planting and Foliar Insecticide Applications for Control of Early-Season Pests in Cotton, 1987

Abstract A small-plot field study was conducted at the Texas A&M Univeristy Research and Extension Center at Corpus Christi to evaluate soil and foliar insecticides for control of early-season pests in dryland cotton. Four treatments and an untreated check were compared in 4-row × 30-ft plots of cotton planted 19 Mar on 38-inch rows. Treatments were replicated 3 times in a randomized complete block design. Using Gandy applicator boxes, soil insecticides (Counter and Temik) were applied in the seed furrow at planting time. Applications of the foliar insecticide treatment (Cygon) were initiated at the pinhead square stage of cotton growth on 8 May; subsequent applications were made on 14, 21, and 28 May. Cygon applications were made with a CO2-pressurized (35 psi) backpack sprayer, calibrated to deliver 4.5 gal total spray/acre through 2 size 3X hollow-cone nozzles/row. Edaphic conditions at planting time consisted of 15% water (by weight) in top 4 inches of soil and a temperature of 67°F at 4 inches below surface of soil. The soil type was Victoria clay with an organic matter content of 1.7%. Following planting, rainfall did not occur at the test site until 4 Apr (1.0 inch). Accumulated rainfall at the test site from planting date to first bloom stage of cotton growth (the period during which data on pest infestations were gathered) was 5.8 inches. A light freeze (31°F for 1 hr) occurred 31 Mar. Also, the test site was subjected to heavy rainfall (12 inches) and flooding during the first 2 wk in June; fruit-shed by plants during this period was extensive. Efficacy of treatments was evaluated by inspecting terminals of 20 randomly chosen plants in each plot for numers of fleahopper nymphs and thrips and by inspecting terminal leaves (third leaf from apex of plant) of 20 randomly chosen plants in each plot for numbers of aphids and adult female mites. A plant count was taken at the third leaf stage of cotton growth to determine whether the soil insecticides had an effect on the development of a stand. Seed cotton was hand-harvested from 13.6-ft section of row in each plot for yield analysis.

Foliar Insecticides for Control of Green Peach Aphids and Colorado Potato Beetles, Test 4, 1978

Abstract 'Russet Burbank' potatoes were planted Mar 30 in Ritzville silt loam soil {Mesic Colciorthidic Haploxerolls) with a pH of 6.2 and 1.6% organic matter at Yakima, WA. On Jun 6, the foliar insecticides were applied in 40 gal of spray/acre with a 2-row portable boom CO2 hand sprayer. The plants were 12-14 in. high and each plot was 2-rows wide (5.6 ft) and 25-ft long. Each treatment was replicated 3 times in a randomized complete block design. The number of aphids/20 compound potato leaves per plot was determined at 3, 6, 9, and 14 days after treatment (Jun 9, 12, 15 and 20). Also, the number of dead and live Colorado potato beetle adults and larvae on 3 m2 of soil surface (3 m long × 1 m wide) between the rows of each plot was counted on Jun 7 (24 h after treatment); and the number of adults and larvae on 2 m2 of potato plant area of each plot was on Jul 7 (31 days after treatment). The aphid and Colorado potato beetle data were subjected to analysis of variance with Duncan's MRT. The percent mortality for Colorado potato beetle one day after treatment was calculated for each plot and analyzed.
