ABSTRACT Fall armyworm is one of the main insect pests in Brazil. Thus, the present work aimed to evaluate the seed treatment effect on the control of Spodoptera frugiperda in initial infestations of soybean crops. The experimental design was completely randomized with four replicates of six insecticide treatments applied through seed treatment: imidacloprid plus thiodicarb at the dose of 52.5 plus 105 g a.i. (active ingredient) 100 kg-1 of seed (Cropstar® 0.350 L 100 kg-1 of seed); thiamethoxam at 105 g a.i. 100 kg-1 of seed (Cruiser 350 FS® 0.3 L 100 kg-1 of seed); chlorantraniliprole at 62.5 g a.i. 100 kg-1 of seed (Dermacor® 0.1 L 100 kg-1 of seed); cyantraniliprole at 120 g a.i. 100 kg-1 of seed (Fortenza 600 FS® 0.2 L 100 kg-1 of seed); fipronil plus pyraclostrobin and thiophanate-methyl 50 + 5 + 45 g a.i. 100 kg-1 of seed (Standak Top® 0.2 L 100 kg-1 of seed), and a control treatment. The experiment was carried out in a greenhouse. Diamide insecticides (chlorantraniliprole and cyantraniliprole) presented the best results among all treatments, with lower consumption of the treated leaves by the caterpillars and greater control efficacy of this insect. We verified that seed treatment is a viable alternative for controlling S. frugiperda at the beginning of crop development, when the caterpillar presents the behavior of cutting the seedlings and/or the consumption of leaf area, causing a reduction in the plant population and a consequent yield loss.

Abstract. Pre-sowing treatment of sunflower seeds in a magnetic field makes it possible to improve the sowing quality of seeds and increase the yield of sunflower without the use of mineral fertilizers and chemical plant protection products. Compared to other electrophysical methods, pre-sowing treatment of seeds in a magnetic field is a highly productive, energy-consuming, safe method for operating personnel and the environment. It has now been established that the yield and biometric indicators of agricultural crops depend on the dose of magnetic treatment. Therefore, the aim of the study was to determine the optimal energy dose for processing sunflower seeds in a magnetic field. An analytical expression has been obtained for determining the energy dose of sunflower seed treatment in a magnetic field. It contains all the operating parameters of seed treatment in a magnetic field. It has been established that the energy dose of sunflower seeds treatment in a magnetic field depends in direct proportion to the square of the magnetic induction and pole division and inversely to the speed of the seeds in the magnetic field. The carried out multifactorial experiment made it possible to determine the sunflower seeds germination energy and germination at various energy doses of treatment. This made it possible to determine the optimal mode of sunflower seeds treatment in a magnetic field. It was found that the optimal mode of pre-sowing treatment of sunflower seeds in a magnetic field is a magnetic induction of 0.065 T, four-fold re-magnetization, pole division 0.23 m, a seed velocity of 0.4 m/s, providing an energy treatment of 3.8 J‧s/kg. With the optimal treatment of sunflower seeds in a magnetic field, the germination energy increased by 28 %, the germination – by 24 %, and the yield – by 26 %.

Abstract: In the sowing process, the technique of seed treatment may assist in maintaining crop yield potential. This present study aimed to assess how wheat seed treatment with two different sources of micronutrients, combined with fungicide + insecticide protective treatment and coating with liquid polymer, may impact its vegetative development and grain production. Wheat seeds of cultivar Tec Vigore were subjected to three different treatments using micronutrient containing zinc: no micronutrient, micronutrient 1 (1% Mn, 0.1% Mo, 10% Zn); micronutrient 2 (0.3% B, 0.3% Co; 3% Zn), where micronutrient treatments were combined with different protective treatments used for seed treatment: untreated seeds, polymer (Color seed He), fungicide (Vitavax® Thiram 200 SC) + insecticide (Cruiser® 350 FS) and combination of polymer + fungicide + insecticide. We assessed parameters related to crop development, such as seedling emergence, dry matter of root and shoot, tillers, and for physiological maturity, we assessed grain yield and hectoliter weight. Seed treatment with micronutrients, polymer, fungicide + insecticide and combinations thereof does not reduce emergence and may increase seedling stand, but without influencing wheat grain yield.

Pearl millet production in Niger is characterized by manual sowing and weeding and low use of inputs like mineral and organic fertilizer. This objective of the study was to compare a traditional production package (control) against a new production package consisting of mechanized sowing and weeding, seed priming, seed treatment with a fungicide/insecticide, and microdosing at rate of 0.3 g NPK 15–15–15 hill−1. The experiment was conducted for 2017 and 2018 and at three sites each year. The average time used for sowing and weeding was reduced from 70.2 hours ha−1 in manual operations to 20.3 hours ha−1 in mechanized operations. The new production package reduced the time to maturity by 11 days compared with the traditional package. Average grain yield in the traditional and new production package was 947 and 1470 kg ha−1, respectively, while the corresponding stover yields were 2460 and 3005 kg ha−1, respectively. The increased yield as a result of the new production package is likely an effect of more precise sowing, better weed control, and faster crop development. The improved package increased the gross margin by 80.2% compared with the traditional production method. The improved package will be interesting for the farmers because of the increase in land and labour productivity.

ABSTRACT In the search for homogeneous planting density and satisfactory results in soybean development and yield, the treatment of seeds can be carried out using a combination of chemical fungicides, growth stimulators, and other biological agents. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of chemical and biological inputs for soybean seed treatment on crop development and yield. Experiments were carried out in the 2010/2011 growing season in three municipalities of Rio Grande do Sul using the following treatments: fungicide fludioxonil, Trichoderma spp., fludioxonil + Trichoderma spp., fludioxonil + Trichoderma spp. + the growth stimulator Biozyme®, and a control (untreated). The total number of pods in treatment with Trichoderma spp. and the other treatments were up to 77% higher than that of the control. The grain yield of treatments with fludioxonil, fludioxonil + Trichoderma spp., and fludioxonil + Trichoderma spp. + Biozyme® was up to 14% higher than that of the control. These results indicate that fludioxonil combined with the fungus Trichoderma spp. and Biozyme® is indicated for treating soybean seeds and increases crop development and grain yield.

The Imidacloprid insecticide, Gaucho 70 WS at 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5 and 5.5 g/kg seed was used as seed treatment and monocrotophos 40 WSC at 1120 ml/ha was applied as foliar spray on CB9 cotton cultivar to suppress aphid, whitefly and thrips, and impact on their natural enemies during 2008-2011 at the Regional Cotton Research Station, Dinajpur, Bangladesh. The activity of natural enemies, such as ladybird beetle, lacewing, syrphid, and spider population on the sucking pests attacking cotton cultivar CB9 and yield of cotton were recorded. Imidacloprid significantly reduced aphid, whitefly, and thrips population on cotton crops compared to untreated control or foliar spray of monocrotophos 40 WSC at 1120 ml/ha. Ladybird beetles, lacewings, syrphids, and spiders were abundant in the field but their population decreased in the treated plots compared to untreated control. The CB9 cotton cultivar produced significantly higher yield (1.73 t/ha) with a benefit cost ratio 12.47 when seeds were treated with Imidacloprid at 5.5 g/kg fuzzy seed. This study indicated that Imidacloprid (Gaucho 70 WS) used as a seed treatment may be suggested to the cotton growers for controlling sucking pests. Bangladesh J. Agril.
