Army Cutworm Threat Cited in Nebraska
Dr Kenneth Pruess of the North Platte Experiment Station warns at the Nebraska Weed and Pest Control Conference that western army cutworms will be very common in western Nebraska in 1959 and could be a serious pest while the pale western cutworm remains scarce due to two wet springs. He notes many cutworm species exist in Nebraska but only about 20 pose serious pests and outlines control options with chemicals Hep tachlor aldrin dieldrin endrin. Eldon Erickson cites a federal program to aid control of noxious weeds, offering up to 50% of costs where warranted and urges local districts to contact the county ASC committee.
