The U.S. Department of Agri
culture has registered the use of
Diazinon 14G insecticide for
aerial application in controlling
European Com Borer.
The new label calls for appli
cation of Diazinon 14G by air
when 75 per cent of the com
plants show first-generation
borers feeding. Diazinon should
be broadcast at a rate of from
7 to 14 pounds per acre over
the corn so granules fall into
the whorls. A second applica
tion can be made 7 days later
if needed.
To control second generation
com borers, the new label rec
ommends application of from 7
to 14 pounds of Diazinon per
acre when field counts show
100 egg masses per 100 plants.
Com may be picked immedi

however treated fodder should

Diazinon 14G can be applied with a cyclone seeder or a high-boy
spreader.

In announcing the new label,
Geigy scientists point out that
both Federal and state author
ities in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio,
lowa, Missouri, Kansas, Ne
braska, North and South Da
kota, Maryland and Delaware,
are predicting that 1969 could
see the highest com borer out
break in history. It has been
estimated that more than 20
million acres will be heavily in
fested and aerial application
will play a major role in con
trolling the insect.
To stop first generation com
borer, timing is critial.
Diazinon granules should be
applied in early June so that
they collect in the whorls of the
plants where the young larvae
are feeding on the leaves and
stalk. Once the insect bores into
the stalk of the com plant, it is
virtually impossible to control.
