Evaluation of Torac, Warrior, and Coragen for First-Generation Colorado Potato Beetle Management in Wisconsin, 2019
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This trial was performed to evaluate the first-generation Colorado potato beetle control of Torac and Torac + PBO Twin-Pack relative to industry standards and an untreated check. This trial was conducted at the University of Wisconsin's Hancock Agricultural Research Station, located 1.1 miles west of Hancock, Wisconsin (44.112332N, -89.534886W), on a loamy sand soil in 2019. Potato Solanum tuberosum cv. 'Yukon Gold' B-size tubers were machine planted as a solid planting on April 16, 2019. Four replicates of eight experimental plots were arranged in an RCBD region. Plots measured two rows (6 ft) wide by 20 ft long. Plots were separated by one untreated guard row and 8 ft of tilled ground along rows. The entire trial measured 108 ft wide (including a 12 ft drive alley along the center) by 120 ft long. Standard fertilizer inputs and fungicide treatments were applied to maintain plant health. Experimental insecticide treatments included Torac at a low and high rate, Torac + piperonyl butoxide (PBO), Torac + Warrior II, Warrior II, and Coragen. All treatments included either Silwet, NuFilm P, or methylated seed oil (MSO) added at 0.25% v/v as adjuvants. Foliar applications were performed on Jun 19 after 50% CPB egg hatch was observed, and reapplied 7 d later on

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
