Extension warns farmers on grain moth damage and harvest timing
Pennsylvania State College extension insect specialists urge farmers who suffered losses from the grain moth to harvest wheat as soon after the crop is ready as possible. Removing grain from the stalk, storing it safely, and fumigating with carbon disulfide can prevent much damage. A caponizing demonstration by County Agent J. W. Warner will be held at Leonard Mumau’s farm in Marion Center Rt. D. 3 on July 2. About 40 Barred Rock chicks will be caponized and interested parties are invited.
