| Abstract/Contents: | "Insecticides were evaluated for control of grasshoppers (GH) on a tall fescue research area at the University of Nebraska Agricultural Research and Development Center near Mead, NE. The turf (100% Tall fescue) was maintained at a height of 2.5 inches. Thatch accumulation (finger compressed) in the plot area was 0.5 inches. Field conditions at the site were: soil type, silty clay loam; soil organic matter, 3-5%; soil pH, 6-7; water pH, 7.0. Environmental conditions at the time of treatment were as follows: soil moisture 16.6 %, air temperature 88°F, soil temperature 79°F; relative humidity 49%, wind velocity 9 mph. Plots, 5 ^D#x 5 ft, were arranged in a RCB with four replications. Insecticides were applied on 28 Jun. Liquid products were applied using a CO2 sprayer at 40 psi and applying 131 gpa finished spray. Granular insecticides were applied using a hand shaker. Post-treatment irrigation was 0.125 inches. A total of 0.09 inches of rain accumulated during the post-treatment period. Within each plot two 1 ft diameter PVC arenas, 6 inches in height were pressed 2 inches in the soil. Ten grasshoppers were collected from a nearby tall fescue area and placed in each arena which were then covered with organdy fabric and secured with a heavy rubber band. Grasshoppers were introduced into the arenas on 28 Jun and 5 Jul. Product efficacy was then evaluated on 1 Jul and 8 Jul (3 and 10 DAT, respectively) by visually examining the arenas for the presence of surviving grasshoppers. Data were subjected to ANOVA and means were separated using LSD (P ≤ 0.05). All insecticide formulations provided statistically significant reductions in grasshopper numbers at 3 DAT when compared to the untreated control. Further, all insecticide treatments except for Advion at the 0.11 lb (AI) /acre rate provided acceptable (>80%) grasshopper control (Table 1). All insecticide formulations, except for Advion at the 0.11 lb AI/A rate, provided statistically significant reductions in grasshopper numbers at 10 DAT when compared to the untreated control. Neither rate of Advion provided acceptable control of grasshoppers 10 DAT. Provaunt and Talstar F continued to provide excellent (100%) control of grasshoppers (Table 2). No phytotoxicity was observed." |
