Alfalfa weevil impact to be minimal this year
West central Wisconsin expects few alfalfa weevil problems as haying begins. Entomologist Ed Arnold says eggs laid will be destroyed by first crop harvest, urges field surveys to gauge any damage and notes a fungus in Sheboygan County may help control larvae. He warns larvae can remain in high cut stubble, and recommends early cutting or spraying if 40 percent of plants show damage.
