Influence of crop sequence, cultivar, and metam sodium on plant‐parasitic nematode population and peanut

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 11, Issue 2, December 2025.
Abstract Prior cropping sequence can have a major effect on populations of plant parasitic nematodes (PPN), peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) yield, and financial return at the farm level. Effective crop rotation sequences can reduce PPN populations and reduce grower reliance on nematicides or fumigant.
