Avicta Complete Pac was evaluated at the LSU AgCenter Northeast Research Station on a delta silt loam infested with nematodes. Over a three year period, several tests were conducted to evaluate the seed treatments efficacy against thrips and nematode ratings were also taken. The test results are compared to Telone II applied as a standard fumigant treatment and Temik 15G applied as in-furrow and sidedress treatments.
