Cutworm infestation worries Franklin County gardens and fields
Franklin County agricultural agent Bob Bozworth reports a bumper cutworm crop due to cool wet spring conditions. Black cutworms dominate gardens, corn, sorghum, and a Wellsville gardener found 185 worms in a 20 inch row of peas. Bozworth advises field checks and spraying when 3 to 5 percent damage appears, with Lorsban or toxaphone options. Grasshoppers may replace cutworms in cooler, wetter June. peach borer sprays for fruit trees, lilac, and ash should continue every 3 to 4 weeks through August. Soybean planting trails, sorghum on pace, and alfalfa and brome cuts underway amid dry winds.
