| Abstract/Contents: | "The golf course rough consisted primarily of Kentucky bluegrass (35%), annual bluegrass (30%), perennial ryegrass (25%), and crabgrass (10%), maintained at 4.5 to 6.0 cm. Treatment plots were 2.6 X 2.6 m, replicated 4 times, arranged in a RCB design. All applications were made 26 Aug. Liquid formulations were applied by hand with watering cans, 3 liters water per plot. Granular formulations were applied using glass jars with perforated lids. Conditions at the time of application were as follows: air temperature, 28 degrees C; hazy, humid; soil type, silty loam; water pH 6.6. All plots were irrigated 0.7 cm 1.5 h after application. Product efficacy was evaluated 9 Oct (40 DAT) by cutting two 0.1 m2 samples out of each plot, dislodging soil with a hand trowel, and counting all grubs to a depth of 10 cm. All of the bendiocarb (Turcam) plots and the two higher rates of ethoprop (Mocap) reduced grub population significantly relative to the untreated check. There was no difference between formulations of Turcam. Fonofo (Crusade) failed to reduce grub populations significantly at both rates tested." |
