SOYBEAN INSECTS Soybeans are a low-value-per- acre crop, and every dollar spent for insect control must be carefully employed. For this reason know what insects are present and whether they are present in damaging numbers. You can accomplish this only by a careful survey of the soy bean fields. Pick out four or five locations in the field and carefully examine a foot of row at each location. Be sure the locations picked are scattered so that they will give a repre sentative sample of the field surveyed. Check for two kinds of soy bean insects—foliage feeders and pod feeders. In checking for foliage feeders, estimate how much foliage is eaten in the average foot of row and ave rage the locations to determine the percent foliage destroyed. For pod feeders, such as stink- bugs, count the number of stink- bugs in each foot of row and average. For the corn earworm, grasp the plants, bend them over, and vigorously shake them. Look in the alley and also at the base of the plants. For best results use a piece of white cloth or similar ma terial in the alley to catch tht insects. Average these counts also. When to treat for foliage feed ers. These include the loopers, velvetbean, caterpillars, army- Research has shown that soy bean plants can withstand as much as a 35-percent foliage loss through the blooming pe riod. After blooming, when the pods begin to form and fill out, any foliage loss over 20 per cent will decrease yield. After the beans are mature, a 25- percent defoliation loss will not usually cause any reduction in yield. The corn earworm sometimes feeds on foliage or blooms. But damage is usually not serious enough to warrant control. When to treat for pod feeders. These include the stinkbugs, which feed on the young beans by sucking the sap, and the corn earworms are very hard beans. When there is one stink- bug per foot of row, then start control measures. If com ear- worms three per foot of row, start control. Newly hatched com earworms are very ahrd to see. Many times in count ing the number of worms per foot of row they are often miss ed, and the infestation is much higher than the count indicates. When you find small worms, particularly those one-half inch in length or less, re-examine the area or sheet where the plants were shaken. Later in the season, when beans are near maturity, the damage by pod feeders is more serious. Sevin is effective in control ling the Mexican bean beetle, the bean beetle, velvetbean ca Each year the cost of replacing your farm buildings goes up, up and up.
