Today I received this information from Keith A. Fontenot, County Agent, Evangeline Parish. He will be holding the Evangeline & St. Landry Crop Production School in January 4, 2012 in Ville Platte, LA. I am not on the program to speak at this meeting, but I will be there to distribute our annual rice entomology survey and to answer any questions you might have about pest management in your rice crop.

Last week we planted the rice water weevil demonstration test sites in Evangeline and St. Landry Parish. Both locations are the hybrid variety XL745. At each location we will be comparing the seed treatments CruiserMaxx, Dermacor X-100 and NipsitInside to an untreated check.

If you are wondering why I’ve been a little quiet lately, it’s because we’ve been busy cutting test plots and gathering harvest data. After long days in this horrendous heat, it’s hard to find a desire to sit at a computer and write. I’ll wait until all the numbers are in to make any comments about the effect of treatments on yields. In the meantime, I thought you might like to see some equipment in action. The best part of harvest is that it really is a gathering of friends.

Yesterday we planted two demonstration sites. We started bright and early at Charlie Fontenot’s farm in St. Landry Parish. In the afternoon, we moved over to the Morein Farm in Evangeline Parish. Both sites were successfully planted before the rain began in Evangeline Parish last night.
