“We started out trying to give
farmers the advantages of precision
farming,” said Stollzfiis. It is a vision
that hasn’t changed in 50 years.
‘Today the possibilities of satellite
technology fascinate me. You can
have the global positioning satellites
tell you exactly where you are in a
field. That lets you control fertilizer
amounts to an amazingly accurate
degree by eliminating overlap. I
believe that computer controlled
spreading will soon be very com
mon. There’s also radar technology
that will let you apply accurate
amounts regardless of ground speed.
When you can connect such a tech
nology to the positioning satellite,
you’ll be able to spread in the dark.”
When C. U. and Ruth do take
time to look back over their SO years
together in agricultural business,
they do so with deep gratitude. Ruth
says, “In all we want to thank the
Lord for being so good to us.” Says
C. U., “It makes you feel good to
have made a contribution to agricul
ture. You’re helping to feed the
world.”

can be realized by changing the
composition of the grain mix ra
ther than simply decreasing quan

One last thought: Remember
many factors contribute to your

ings in feed costs may translate in
to long-term expense if cow
health, reproductive efficiency,

Scout Corn For
Cutworm Damage
ROBERT J. ANDERSON
Lancaster Extension Agent
When com emerges, the first
insect to be looking for is the
black cutworm. The cutworm lar
vae usually begins feeding about.
mid-May in Lancaster Couny. The
black cutworm will damage plants
by cutting either above or below
the soil surface or by tunneling
into the plant.
Soil conditions usually influ
ence where the larvae will feed.
Under dry conditions, the feeding
is normally below ground level.
Under moist conditions, the feed
ing is usually above ground level.
The com fields with the highest
risk of damage from the cutworm
are those that had weeds in them
within seven days of planting.
Very little cutting should be
expected in fields which were
tilled or weed-free for eight or
more days before planting except
those adjacent to other fields
which were not clean of all veg
etation for the eight-day period.
The eight-day period allows the
plant material in the field to dry
and become inedible for the larvae
causing them to starve before the
com emerges.

black cutworm in Pennsylvania is
3 percent of the plants !cut off or
more than five cutworms per 100
plants. Several other thresholds
which I have looked at for the con
trol of the cutworm also include
the size of the cutworm.
AS the size* of the larva
increases, the number of plants cut
off also increases. However, it
never exceeds 5 percent. There
fore, following the Pennsylvania
guideline of 3 percent should be
adequate in protecting the crop.
In many fields, growers attempt
to control both the rootworm and
cutworm with a planter applica
tion of an insecticide. This will
control most of the cutworms.
However, scouting should not be
neglected in case the planter appli
cation fails to control the
cutworms.
Under dry conditions, the effec
tiveness of Lorsban as a rescue
treatment can be improved with
the use of rotary hoe to slightly
incorporate the material into the
soil where the larvae is living,
according to Dr. M.E. Rice in
lowa. However, if one of the pyre
throids insecticides such as
Ambush. Asana, or Pounce is
used, they should not be
