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 moth counts in pheromone traps in most counties dropped a little this week and were lower than typical for this time of year.
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.
Bollworm moth captures fell last week in the Delta region but increased in Northeast MS so that pressure was similar in all counties across the state. Tobacco budworm counts remained at a low level.
We have seen our first large spike in Southwestern corn borer of the growing season in the central to northern portion of the state. Fortunately, timely planted corn should be nearing a stage where borers are not much of a

We welcome you to attend the Row Crop Update at the 2024 Mississippi Agricultural Industry Council Annual Convention. This event is hosted at Perdido Beach Resort in Orange Beach, Alabama on Wednesday, July 24 starting at 8:00am.
Bollworm pheromone trap counts rose slightly this week compared to the previous week. Tobacco budworm counts were higher in the Delta region, but absent in Northeast MS. Overall, heliothine insect pressure appears to be about average for this time of
Over the last 7 to 10 days, fall armyworm infestations in rice have increased a good bit. Currently pyrethroids are the only products labeled for fall armyworm management in rice. Since 2021 the performance of pyrethroids against fall armyworm has
Bollworm counts were stable to higher this week compared to last week, but much lower than last year at this time. The generation that developed on silking corn should be emerging, so expect bollworm moth counts to rise over the
Bollworm trap catches were stable to slightly lower this week compared to last week. The pressure from bollworms is much lower than last year’s record-breaking pressure. Tobacco budworms were barely present this week in all traps.
Bollworm trap counts were similar to last week overall, which is much lower than last year at this time. Tobacco budworm counts were fairly low this week.
Corn progresses through six stages as ears develop through reproductive growth stages. Identification of these stages can help time development, make prudent decisions and anticipate crop response to management practices and environmental conditions.
Bollworm pheromone trap counts were down sharply this week compared to last week in every county, so it appears we are in a lull between generations. Tobacco budworm we higher in the Delta, particularly in Leflore county. Actually only 1
