There have been reports of cutworm activity in Saline County.
Fields at greatest risk to cutting and economic damage are in the one- to four-leaf stage of plant development. An early warning sign of potential economic damage includes small pinhole feeding injury in leaves (caused by the first three instars). Do not assume that all Bt hybrids offer the same level of cutworm protection. A nominal threshold of 3% cutting of plants has traditionally been used as a point at which growers should consider a rescue treatment.
