Boys and girls Continued On 10-A Stem Rot Potential Problem By Murray Goodwin Agri.Ext.Agt. Most peanut fields have rank growth this year. This increases the chance of southern stem rot being a serious problem, especially if we get showers. There are two materials available for control of southern stem rot - Terraclor and Vitavax. Regardless of which material you use, it must get to the ground level to be effective; for this is the place where the fungus attacks. If you use Vitavax we recommend 1.25 pounds of actual Vitavax per acre in 40 or more gallons of water. To get Vitavax in sufficient water we suggest a 8010 nozzle. If you use Terraclor, we suggest that you use 25 pounds of 40 per cent material applied right over the center of the row. Bollworms in cotton Bollworm moths are now flying and depositing eggs in cotton fields. When Randy Copeland or someone else contacts you and suggests that you apply a biological insecticide for control of bollworms, the quicker you can get the material on the cotton the better! We have a chance of producing a really good THE CHOWAN HERALD cotton crop this year, but we must control bollworms and have two or three good rains for this to come about. Soybean worms Bollworm moths are flying in soybean fields, too. We are approaching the time when when we usually have to spray for worms in soybeans. We suggest that you begin checking your fields now for worms. Fields that don’t have the middles covered are more likely to have a high insect population. Suggested chemicals you can use are Sevin, Lannate, Nudrin or Orthene. Grain outlook There was an article in a recent The Wall Street Journal about the grain outlook. The outlook at this time is for a big crop. A record winter wheat crop has been harvested. At this time, the outlook for corn is for a bumper crop. Weather conditions in lowa have been about ideal. Temperatures have been in the 80s, with about half an inch of rain a week. Taken In Death James (Tom) White, 80, of 18% Paradise Lane, Largo, died Thursday, August 13.
