The efficacy of available nematicide and insecticide treatment options were evaluated in a commercial cotton field in Lonoke County, Arkansas with history of root-knot nematode problems. Treatments consisted of 1.) Avicta Complete Pack; 2.) Aeris; 3.) 5 lb Temik and an In-Furrow Fungicide; 4.) 3gal Telone,  3.5 lb Temik, and an In-Furrow Fungicide; 5.) Cruiser and an In-Furrow Fungicide.  The treatments were replicated four times.  Treatment evaluations will be based on stand counts, preseason nematode counts, stand counts, root damage, early season thrips, and yield.
