Claim · model-written summary
Applying either phorate or acephate was often as effective as the combination of both insecticides in preventing injury caused by tobacco thrips although in some instances applying both insecticides was more effective than a single insecticide.

- Association Differences in visible injury to peanut caused by tobacco thrips feeding were observed across yr, planting dates, and insecticide treatments.
- Intervention effect Applying either phorate or acephate was often as effective as the combination of both insecticides in preventing injury caused by tobacco thrips although in some instances applying both insecticides was more effective than a single insecticide.
- Intervention effect Visible injury caused by tobacco thrips was often greater when peanut was planted in early May compared with later plantings.
- Intervention effect Peanut yield was protected equally from tobacco thrips injury by phorate, acephate, and the combination of both insecticides.
- Intervention effect Peanut yield was protected equally from tobacco thrips injury by phorate, acephate, and the combination of both insecticides.
- Association Planting date and insecticides affected peanut yield independently suggesting that strategies for managing tobacco thrips will not differ across planting dates in North Carolina.
- Intervention effect Peanut yield was greater in 2 of 4 yr when planted in mid-May compared with planting in early or late-May.
