Abstract
Aldrin at 8 oz. technical per acre was compared as a seed treatment, a spray application; a 10% granulated material mixed with fertilizer and as a 50% wettable powder mixed with fertilizer for control of the larval stage of the rice water weevil, Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus Ksl. All methods of application were equally effective. High significant yield increases were obtained from controlling an infestation of 24.3 larvae per foot of drill row.
