This is information for the site-specific nematode management workshop. Information on this poster will be the current level of research and recommendations for the site-specific application of nematicides for use in Louisiana. Information presented will be on how we use apparent electrical conductivity to help us delineate potential areas within a field that would likely be prone to nematode injury, the use of verification strips to further narrow down these areas, and how fields can be divided successfully into management zones.
