ABSTRACT
Small plot studies were conducted on two fields on typical grower farms, one with root-knot and one with reniform nematode. One treatment, Temik (aldicarb) applied at a rate of 5.0 lb product per acre with an additional 5.0 lb applied at either 4 weeks after planting or at the pinhead square stage was the highest yielding treatment in both studies. The same results were found the previous year on similar studies. Also, eight large block studies comparing Temik sidedress at 5.0 lb per acre compared to no treatment were conducted. Results indicated a significant yield increase for sidedressed plots compared to the untreated plots.
