D3299: Ants in my plants: Impacts of cotton insecticides on beneficial insects

Beneficial insects play an important role in Alabama cotton production. A small plot replicated trial was conduction at the Prattville Agricultural Research Unit to measure the impacts of commonly used insecticides to manage stink bugs and tarnished plant bugs on beneficial insect populations. Data will include counts at multiple time intervals after applications to assess initial and residual impacts of insecticides.
