  Movement and Toxicity of Nematicides in the Plant Root Zone
The variability of the distribution of the nematicide in soil depends upon the degree of incorporation and the extent to which the chemical is redistributed in soil by diffusion and leaching in soil water.
Nematicide dispersal may be severely restricted due to the reversible and irreversible binding (adsorption) of nematicide molecules onto organic matter surfaces.
Nematicide application rates required for effective nematode control may be determined by the extent to which nematicide adsorption to soil organic matter occurs, the volume of treated soil which is determined by soil type and soil moisture content.

 nematicide history
Ancient history of nematicides is closely associated with the early history of soil insecticides, and probably had its beginning about 1854, when Garreau recognized the insecticidal value of carbon bisulphide (also spelled disulphide and bi- or disulfide).
The end of the medieval era of nematicide history and the beginning of the modern era was marked by the publication in 1943 of a paper by Dr. Walter Carter, of the Pineapple Research Institute, Honolulu, Hawaii.
Nematicides are now regularly used by growers of many crops once considered to be outside the profitable range.

 Part III - Chemical Management - Factors Affecting the Efficacy of Nematicides   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Nematicides can adsorb to organic debris and thus reduce the amount of compound free in the soil.
Almost all nonfumigant nematicides such as Nemacur and Vydate are organophosphate or carbamate pesticides, which are potent cholinesterase inhibitors.
If exposure to the nematicide is too short or at a low concentration, however, these behavioral modifications can be reversed and the treatment is not effective.

In addition nematicide regimes will be superimposed in the plots to determine efficacy of 1,3-dichloropropene and aldicarb in managing yield losses across a range of soil types and nematode densities.
Nematicide treatments will be established in field plots of each production system to determine percentage yield losses due to nematodes.
By matching nematicide application rates to predicted nematode distributions (precision applications)nematodes can be controlled and 5% yield increases obtained with reductions of 34% to 78% in nematicides used and economic inputs.

Nematicides are useful when nematodes are the only soil pathogens to control.
Nematicides Because of the impressive yield increase following their application, nematicides are the most popular means for controlling nematodes.
Nematicides containing or developing methyl isothiocyanate after being incorporated into the soil are less effective than 1,3D against nematodes but they exhibit also herbicide and fungicide activities.

 ACES Publications : ANR-0523
Post-plant contact nematicides, available as granular or liquid formulations (except Clandosan) are restricted use pesticides that require a Pesticide Applicator Certification Permit for their purchase and application.
Clandosan nematicide is composed of relatively non-toxic compounds and may be safely used in all landscape, commercial, and recreational turfs.
In areas heavily infested with nematodes, a second nematicide application in late summer or early fall may be needed, especially on greens and tees to maintain turf quality.

However, he added that new studies have revealed that the field use of aldicarb-based nematicides do not impact negatively on earthworms - it is, in fact, the cultivation machines that cause the greatest impact, and in any case, populations recover within 14 weeks.
M Gatineau pointed to the establishment of vineyards as an example of the crucial role of aldicarb and the need to be able to continue using it.
Growers, operators and agronomists can register for a place on a nematicide stewardship training course or obtain the nematicide stewardship e-learning CD by calling Bayer Assist on 0845 6092266 or request one using the contact form.

 Nematicide on Cotton Growth and Yield   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
It is concluded that a well chosen, single rate application (based on several soil samples taken in the fall of the previous year) will yield at least equally to a variable rate application, and also be less risky.
However, sampling error still occurred (Gaines County in 1996, for example), and the cost of the nematicide is relatively low ($3.20/lb) compared with the cost of under applying Temik®.
The recommendation is to sample fields for root-knot nematode, and then apply a nematicidal rate (5-7 lbs of Temik®/a) in the areas of the field with root-knot nematode.

 Guide for Interpreting Nematode Assay Results
Combining the use of a nematicide with resistant varieties or non-host crop rotations may decrease nematode population densities, which may increase the effectiveness of chemical control and allow the use of lower nematicide rates.
Corn is a relatively low-profit crop in Georgia, and the costs of nematicides may preclude their use in nematode management unless the crop is grown for on-farm use.
Nematicides remain a key tool in nematode management in putting greens but, to be most effective, they should be used in combination with proper turf management.

 Nematicides
Non-fumigant nematicides must be mechanically mixed throughout the soil profile, or spread in aqueous solution.
Nematicides in soil are in dynamic equilibrium among the three soil phases: 1) solids (adsorbed to clay and OM), 2) soil solution, and 3) soil air.
Until 1977, DBCP was used as a soil fumigant and nematicide on over 40 different crops in the United States.

 Using GIS/GPS for Variable-Rate Nematicide Application in Row Crops
Potentially lessened rates of nematicides could be used since most nematode population distributions in the field are generally not uniform but rather in clusters.
Use of variable-rate application of nematicides for crops is a relatively new concept and very little research actually is available to determine the logistic and economic potential for this technology.
With accurate information on nematode populations in a specific field, the obvious use of precision agricultural technology is to adjust rates of application of a nematicide as one crosses a field.

The effect of granular nematicide incorporation depth and potato planting depth on potatoes grown in land infested with the potato cyst nematodes Globodera rostochiensis and G.
Field experiments at Harper Adams, Shropshire and Wisbech, Cambridgeshire investigated the effect of nematicide incorporation and seed tuber planting depth on the yield of the potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivars Estima and Maris Piper and the population control of the potato cyst nematodes Globodera rostochiensis Woll.
Incorporating nematicide to 20 cm also gave consistently higher ware yields and better nematode control than the other incorporation methods, which were not significantly different to the control.

Nematicides which have been found in groundwater in various situations include 1,2-dichloropropane (one of the components of D-D mixture), Vydate (oxamyl), Temik (aldicarb), and DBCP (dibromochloropropane).
Because of acute toxicity, the organophosphates and carbamates are considered to be more likely to cause harm to nontarget organisms and endangered species than are the fumigant nematicides.
On the otherhand, several of the fumigant nematicides have been implicated as potential carcinogens.

When soil solarisation lasted for 45-60 days during July-August, these nematodes were eradicated from the top soil profile, even in heavily infested greenhouses, thus resulting in roots nearly free of nematode galls until harvest.
The use of a nematicide was effective when these nematodes were the only soil pathogens present.
In this case injection of a low rate of 1,3-D at 35cm deep, instead of 18-20 cm as usually done, combined with soil solarisation, was useful to achieve good nematode control in a deeper soil profile.
