Additional information was wasobtained concerning<br />

con­<br />

As Asininprevious tests, the thefirst firstapplication<br />

made 2 2toto4 4weeks after afterplant plantemergence<br />

provided the themost most effective protection against<br />

the thefall fallarmyworm. The Thelowest stem stemborer<br />

damage was wasregistered when the thesecond application<br />

was wasmade 7 7toto9 9weeks after afterplant<br />

emergence.<br />

Tlaltizapan, Morelos and andPoza PozaRica, Rica, Veracruz,<br />

Mexico, 1969. 1969.<br />

Although yield yieldincrements over overthe thecheck<br />

were werenot not substantial (except in inthe thetest test established<br />

at at PozaRica RicaononFebruary 17) 17) in inmost<br />

cases the thetreated plots plotsyielded more than than<br />

the thecheck.<br />

Another test test was wasconducted at at Poza Rica Rica<br />

to todetermine the thenumber of ofapplications and and<br />

proper timing of ofthe theapplications during the the<br />

rainy season.<br />

The Thefindings (Table 26) 26) revealed<br />

that thattwo twoapplications (15 (15and and3030days daysafter<br />

plant emergence) werenecessary to tosuppress<br />

fall fall armyworm. An Anadditional application, made<br />

45 45days daysafter afterplant emergence, significantly<br />

reduced stemborer damage to tothe thestalks and and<br />

ears.<br />
