ABSTRACT

Two tests were conducted in 2002 to evaluate the efficacy of select insecticides on thrips. Each test was at a different location, Keiser and Marianna, AR. Temik and Cruiser provided significant control at both locations. Orthene did not provide significant control over the untreated check at either location. Only Orthene failed to provide a significantly higher yield than the untreated check at the Keiser location. There were no statistical differences in lint yield among the treatments at the Marianna location.
