Once again illustrating the importance of crop rotation, researchers at Iowa State University have discovered resistance to Cry34/35Ab1, which may be present in Herculex or Optimum corn traits.
Late-harvested corn may be at risk because of western bean cutworms that have infested some fields, leaving some damaged crops susceptible to toxin-contaminated mold.
This may be the year to apply a foliar fungicide to minimize losses from disease. But only tank-mix an insecticide with it after you’ve thoroughly scouted your field.
Researchers say they now know what allows some Western corn rootworms to survive crop rotation, a farming practice that once effectively managed the rootworm pests.
