Bollworm Control Through Cultural Measures Report
The Department of Agriculture releases a Bollworm Report showing field experiments by the Bureau of Entomology. It argues a cotton crop can be grown during severe bollworm years using early planting, fall and winter plowing, early fruiting cotton seeds, fertilizers, and prompt cultivation. It notes corn should be silkless until August to avoid bollworm pressure and suggests Paris green may be used in late July to early August in severe cases.
