The
Hessian Fly in Missouri and control measures
Missouri faces three possible Hessian fly broods annually with wide variation due to temperature and wet or dry seasons. The fall and spring broods are most destructive. destroying any brood typically yields a lighter next year. Effective control centers on delaying the fall brood by sowing winter wheat late, destroying volunteer wheat, and deep plowing stubble.
