Corn Borer Threat Prompts New Harvest Method
Indiana State Entomologist Frank N Wallace predicts a decade of change for corn harvesting as the corn borer spreads from Ohio into the Midwest. A proposed machine would cut stalks, shred ears, and allow fodder to be burned or plowed under to kill borers, though widespread infestation will still spread. The pest’s advance is fueled by publicity and misperceptions, Wallace warns, with damages rising as areas become fully infested. He notes moths are single brooded now but may become multibrooded in warmer climates, complicating control efforts. Entomologists have catalogued hundreds of thousands of insect species, with many more yet unknown.
