The impact of water management practices on the efficacy of insecticide seed treatments against rice water weevil  in rice was evaluated in field trials at the Delta Research and Extension Center.  Two separate experiments were carried out to determine the impact of flood timing and flush number between planting and permanent flood. Efficacy of seed treatments were determined through larval number and grain yield.
