Eugene Burris Research Entomologist-Northeast Research Station Professor B.S. 1971 Oklahoma State University M.S. 1973 Oklahoma State University eburris@agcenter.lsu.edu
Current Research Interests Evaluate new experimental insecticides for their potential to replace older compounds currently used for insect pest management in cotton, small grains sweet potato and soybeans. Evaluate Integrated Insecticide and Pest Management Strategies for their potential use in cotton, small grains sweet potato and soybeans. New Research Interests Characterize the effects of soil texture on population densities of early-season insect and nematode complexes. Develop and validate variable rate insecticide/nematicide applications and quantify the economic benefit of prescription management by soil zones.
