Thrips, Frankleniella fusca, are an early common pest on seedling cotton throughout the cotton belt. Previous research has been conducted on the efficacy of seed treatments and other practices to suppress thrips damage on seedling cotton. However, limited research has been conducted on the control of seed treatments with the addition of PRE herbicide applications that maximize damage potential in early growth stages of cotton.  This paper addresses the use of seed treatments with an addition of PRE herbicide applications to maximize damage potential that will evaluate seed treatment control of thrips in early staged cotton.
