Corey Bryant and Vaughn Reed visited the Crop Doctors’ Podcast studio in Stoneville to talk about soil sampling. Topics include sampling timing, frequency, grids or zones, etc. There are different philosophies on how to manage this important agronomic practice, but
Tight margins and high expenses tempt us to consider managing crop residue with fire, rather than tillage or other alternatives. However, fire will reduce recycling of organic matter and nutrients. Thus, burning produces several negative consequences that can definitely diminish profit.
Bollworm trap catches were up sharply in many counties this week compared to last week. This was the first week since mid-July that any county averaged more than bollworm 100 moths/trap. Tobacco budworm trap catches were also up somewhat this
Bollworm pheromone trap catches this week were comparable to last week, last year, and to the 10-year average. Many fields are now matured past their susceptible stages, so those late planted fields may see higher bollworm pressure than expected due
Bollworm moth counts in pheromone traps in most counties dropped a little this week and were lower than typical for this time of year.
Mid-South Cotton Specialists Working Group provides this guide to aid in defoliation decision making. Multiple scenarios ranging from 1 pass to 2 pass programs along with considerations of both temperatures and environmental factors as a reference for applying harvest aids.
Unless something goes wrong, this should be the last insect podcast on real-time issues for 2024. Don and Tyler talked about thresholds and treatment terminations for loopers, kudzu bugs, and red-banded stink bugs in soybeans and plant bugs, bollworms and
Bollworm moth trap catches were similar to the previous week and to long-term average catches in both the Delta and NE Mississippi regions. Tobacco budworm catches continue to be low.
