Abstract
Insecticides were applied on 24, 30, Aug and 3, 7, 12 Sep on ‘DPL 90’ cotton in Lonoke County, AR using a John Deere Hi-Cycle 6000 sprayer equipped with a CO2 powered system for spraying small plots. The sprayer was calibrated to deliver 10 gal/acre at 50 psi through TX-8 hollowcone nozzles on a 19-inch spacing. Plots were 9, 38-inch rows, 75 ft long arranged in a RCB design with 4 replications and a skip row between plots to discourage boll weevil movement between plots. Boll weevil ratings were made 4-5 DAT by examining 25 squares/plot for boll weevil damage. Bollworms were controlled using Bolstar 6 EC at 1.0 (AI)/acre in all plots. Plots were harvested using a John Deere 2-two picker, harvesting the center 2 rows of each plot.
