ABSTRACT
Nematicides can be used to mananage reniform nematodes in cotton. Results of this 1993 test indicate that Temik 15G® (5-to 7 lb/a) applied in-the-furrow is as effective and as economical as banded applications. Post-plant Vydate® applications to Temik treated plots did not increase cotton yields. Banded applications of Temik over the center of the row, as in 5 previous tests, maintained reniform populations at a significantly lower level than other nematicides or application methods. Banded Temik applications did not yield better than the in-furrow applications, however.
