Several insecticides were tested for efficacy of control against southern green stink bug in 3 small plot trials at the St. Gabriel Research Station in Iberville Parish, LA. Test 1 was conducted on 17 Aug on ‘Ring Around 452’ in the R6 growth stage. Tests 2 and 3 were conducted on 3 Sep on ‘Delta Pine 415’ in the R6 and R5 growth stages, respectively. Treatments in all tests were arranged in a RCBD with 4 replications. Plots were 50 ft by 5 rows (36 inch row spacing). Treatments were applied with a tractor using a compressed air sprayer calibrated to deliver 10 gpa at 44 psi with 8002 flat fan nozzles. At 2 and 7 DAT, one 25 sweep sample was taken from each plot using a 15 inch diameter sweep net. Nymph and adult SGSB were counted. No rainfall was recorded during any of the tests.
