We had a great opportunity to conduct another on farm research trial at the Sunbelt Ag Expo in 2020. This research focused on the management of root knot nematodes in cotton. The plots were planted on May 14, 2020 and harvested on November 10, 2020. The treatments were replicated three times and each plot consisted of six, 38 inch rows. The plots at this location averaged 990 feet long. The plot was harvested with a four row cotton picker and weighed with a industry boll buggy.
Treatments included:
- Phytogen 443 W3FE*
- Phytogen 400 W3FE*
- Phytogen 480 W3FE*
- DPL 1747 B2XF*
- DPL 1646 B2XF + Velum Total 16 oz/A
- DPL 1646 B2XF + Velum Prime 6.5 oz/A + Aglogic 5 lb/A
- DPL 1646 B2XF + Propulse 13.7 oz/A
- DPL 1646 B2XF + Aglogic 5lb/A
- Stoneville 5600 B2XF*
*Admire 9.2 oz/A was applied in furrow for thrips control.
The results of this demonstration are below. Nematode populations are not reported due to low numbers at this location.
This plot could not be possible without the support of Bayer Crop Science, BASF, Aglogic, Dow, and the Sunbelt Ag Expo.
