Nematicides against Reniform Nematode in Northeast Louisiana

Terry L. Erwin, Charles Overstreet and Edward C. McGawley


ABSTRACT

Nematicide trials were conducted in Morehouse Parish during 2001 to evaluate rates of Temik 15%G, compare Temik 15%G against the insecticide Adage, and determine the efficacy of sidedress applications of Temik 15%G. In the rate/Adage study, only Temik 15%G at 5.0 pounds per acre had significantly higher yield than its comparison Adage treatment. Nematode populations seemed to be unaffected by any rate or treatment in this study, increasing rapidly by midseason. A rate and sidedress test conducted at another location showed little effect on the reniform population. Temik 15%G at 3.5 pounds per acre had significantly lower yield than any other treatment. The sidedress application of Temik 15%G at 5.0 pounds combined with the same rate at planting gave the highest yield numerically. Boll rot probably significantly affected yield in both tests.
