Description
Summary:Materials were applied on 22 Jun for control of nymphs of various grasshopper species to 75- by 75-ft plots in a pruned blueberry field at Jonesboro, Maine. There was 1 replication of each treatment, applied at a rate of 20 gpa using a CIMA P55D Atomizer Low Volume sprayer mounted on a Agco Allis 6670 tractor operating at 40 psi and driven at 1.8 mph. At treatment, plants were 3 to 4 inches tall. On sample dates indicated in table, 3 sets of 10 sweeps were taken in each plot with a standard 12-inch sweep net. The nymphs were counted and then released over the same plot. Conditions were dry throughout the test; no measurable rainfall was recorded.
