Abstract: Cascot B-2 was planted on May 25 at the South Central Research Station, Chickasha, OK at 20 lb/acre. Eight row plots, 200 ft long, were replicated 3 times in a randomized complete block design. Spray applications were made with a John Deere Hi-cycle 6000 sprayer traveling at a speed of 4.5 mph at 40 psi. The John Deere spraying unit was replaced with a Marco system equipped with a roller pump powered by a 3 hp Briggs and Stratton gasoline engine. Insecticide applications consisted of 5 gal total spray mixture per acre, with 1 #8 (Spraying Systems) nozzle per row. Applications were made on Aug 4, 14, 20 and 27 for test 1 and on Aug 8, 14, 19 and 27 for test 2. Intervals between applications ranged from 6 to 10 days. Plots were irrigated with approximately 1 inch of water on Jul 17 and 25. Rainfall during the treatment period was as follows: Aug 7, 1.20 inch; Aug 12, 0.65 inch; Aug 13, 0.22 inch; Aug 16, 1.42 inch; Aug 27, 0.12 inch; and Sep 1, 1.18 inch for a total of 4.79 inches.
