and Mexican bean beetle on
soybeans Company officials
do not expect any federal
soybean registrations this
year.
Nevertheless, the insect
growth regulator already
has received federal
registrations to control boll
weevil on cotton and the
ravenous gypsy moth, which
has chomped its way
through 15 million acres of
timberland since 1920.

The insecticide acts on the
survival Unlike many conventional
neurotoxin insecticides
which usually kill target and
on-target insects upon
contact, Dimilin does not
harm big-eyed bugs or other
natural enemies of the
velvetbean caterpillar.
Numerous studies by
university toxicologists and
Huntingdon Research
Center of England show
Dimilin has a very low acute
mammalian toxicity, does
not produce mutations in
organisms or offspring and
does not accumulate in the
food chain.

not always available or
feasible at farrowing tune,
especially in larger
operations, woven wire
flooring may be one way to
reduce death losses without
increasing the work load,”
Faber says.
The researcher suggests
that hog producers may
want to install wire flooring
m a few crates to see what
affect a flooring change will
have in their own operations.

larva stage by inhibiting the
young insect’s development
of chitin. Velvetbean
caterpillars need chitin to
develop their tough exo
skeletons much as humans
need calcium to form bones.
Without chitin, the larva’s
skin ruptures and it dies
before reaching
reproductive maturity.

plications at least 20 days

reportedly will cost about
$3.50 an acre.
