Kansas entomologist advises soil disk for corn rootworm insecticides
Kansas State University entomologist Chris C. Burkhardt warns farmers to disk insecticides into the soil immediately after planting or just ahead of planting if applying in the row. He cautions against leaving aldrin or heptachlor on the surface due to breakdown from sun and wind. Only winter granule applications can stay on the surface. He cites three million bushels saved and 73 percent of acreage treated with perfect control last year.
