Control Methods for Laodelphax striatellus in Corn Fields and Tips for Preventing Phytotoxicity
Controlling Laodelphax striatellus in Corn Fields Requires Preventing Phytotoxicity
(Agricultural Wealth Network) In recent years, incidents of phytotoxicity to corn caused by improper pesticide use during the control of Laodelphax striatellus have occurred frequently in corn production. Therefore, safe pesticide use should be emphasized when controlling Laodelphax striatellus.
Use of Organophosphates in Corn Fields When Laodelphax striatellus outbreaks occur in corn fields, frequent and heavy pesticide applications are usually required to bring the pest population under control. In recent years, incidents of phytotoxicity to corn caused by improper pesticide use have occurred frequently in production. Therefore, safe pesticide use should be emphasized when controlling Laodelphax striatellus.
When using organophosphate and pyrethroid pesticides to control Laodelphax striatellus in corn fields, the pesticide solution concentration should be strictly controlled, otherwise phytotoxicity is likely to occur. For example, 48% chlorpyrifos emulsifiable concentrate is generally used as a 2000-fold solution, and the dilution factor must not be lower than 1000-fold; pyrethroid pesticides are generally used as 2000-3000-fold solutions. Dichlorvos, phoxim and fenvalerate are prone to causing phytotoxicity when used on corn, so they should generally not be used.
