Bifenthrin and using Topgaurd as fungicide since making the trip Having same problem here in Northeastern North Carolina Tim. NE Northmapton County NE NC Conway, North Carolina Posted 15:13 (#5461296 - in reply to #5461229) Subject: RE: intrepid, besiege or something else? $20-$25 applied an acre is hard to swallow for a worm spray. Some fields that shared a well with rice or corn and maybe stressed a little from time to time are above threshold. I'm finding very few on field with an abundance of irrigation water. ![]() Posted 13:48 (#5461229 - in reply to #5461140) Subject: RE: intrepid, besiege or something else? It seems anymore we always end up making a insecticide spray before it over. We have had to do some fungicide for frogeye. Mainly just green clover worms so far and a few stink bugs beginning to show up. Haven't had to spray insecticide yet this year. We have used it and it's expensive but it did a good job. It is more expensive than say bifenthrin which only has a 5 rating for corn earworm but has a 8 for both stinkbugs.

Primary target is corn ear worms in beans. ![]() ![]() Posted 11:28 (#5461013) Subject: intrepid, besiege or something else?

So, watch the calendar for Besiege application timing and watch the weather for indications of potential pest problems. Besiege controls lepidopteran, sucking and chewing insects by contact, ingestion and ovicidal action. As a bonus, the residual also offers some control of leaf and alfalfa hoppers that kill leaves and stems.īesiege insecticide is good value for the dollar, not only because of its broad spectrum knock down and residual activity, but also for its dual modes of action. Because Besiege has good residual, a treatment for LCB control often is still available to help manage soybean loopers. And if the weather is hot and wet instead, anticipate soybean looper worm flights will begin to pick up – and they’re headed for your peanut fields.įortunately, peanut growers can control the 2 pests with 1 product – Besiege ® insecticide.įor LCB, the ability to “wash in” an application with irrigation or timely rainfall optimizes control by improving coverage deep in the canopy. LCB population outbreaks typically occur during hot, dry weather, especially in peanuts growing on sandy soils. Close scouting will determine the need for and best timing for treatment. Soybean looper pressure likely will be highest 75-120 days after planting. For LCB, that is 50-75 days after planting when the stand is established. The best strategy is to start the stopwatch after peanuts are planted to determine when the best windows of treatment will be for both pests. While it’s too early to tell what 2021 has in store for pests in peanuts, one thing is certain – we likely will have steady pressure from the usual yield robbing lepidopteran pests, including lesser cornstalk borer (LCB) and soybean looper, just as was the case in 2020.
