Sp290-X Grasshoppers, The University Of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service
Field & Commercial Crops
Grasshoppers may at times become serious pests on ornamentals, vegetable and field crops. Grasses and other herbaceous plants are the most common food for these pests, but after those hosts are consumed the grasshoppers often turn to feeding on vegetables, field crops or on leaves and even tender bark of shrubs and trees.

Sp341-Q Sugarcane Beetle In Field Corn, The University Of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service
Field & Commercial Crops
The sugarcane beetle is an occasional pest of field corn in Tennessee. Infestations have been spotty to date and not too damaging in terms of stand and yield losses. However, the beetle caused serious damage in corn during the 2001 and 2002 growing seasons. The fields affected were corn planted into pasture, sod or no-till and some conventional tillage corn.

W221-Mid-South Multi-State Evaluation Of Treatment Thresholds For Tarnished Plant Bug In Pre-Flowering Cotton, The University Of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service
Field & Commercial Crops
Prior to bloom, the primary hemipteran pest of cotton in the Mid-South is the tarnished plant bug (TPB). Cotton fleahopper and clouded plant bug are other hemipteran pests that are occasionally observed. These pests reduce yields by feeding on squares (flower buds), which often shed. Mid-sized or larger squares may not shed, but feeding injury is generally evident in the form of yellow staining on the surface of the square and damaged anthers in flowers (i.e., dirty blooms). Square loss can delay maturity and sometimes reduce yield. Delays in crop maturity, even when not causing yield loss, can increase mid-and …

Sp341-W-Insects In Grain Bins, The University Of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service
Field & Commercial Crops
One of the most common insects in stored grain is the Indian-meal moth, Plodia interpunctella (Hubner). These moths are called “flour moths” in Tennessee because they feed on flour or milled products. In farm grain bins, they prefer broken grains or grains damaged by other pests and seldom attack sound grain kernels. They cause problems by spinning webbings as immature. This causes lower quality in stored grain.

Sp290-K The Hessian Fly In Wheat, The University Of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service
Field & Commercial Crops
The Hessian fly is a pest of winter wheat in Tennessee and other wheat-growing states. This pest caused disastrous losses in Tennessee wheat in the mid- 1980s. Later planting of wheat and the use of wheat varieties resistant to Hessian fly minimized economic losses from this pest. In the coming years, potential economic losses from Hessian fly could increase due to the lack of resistance varieties.
In 2009, very little attention was given to Hessian fly infestations. However, there are some varieties with moderate resistance to biotype L Hessian fly. None are completely resistant. Some of the better methods to …

Pb1768 2010 Insect Control Recommendations For Field Crops –, The University Of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service
Field & Commercial Crops
An Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program integrates control tactics including cultural practices, variety selection, biological control and insecticides to manage insect pest populations so that economic damage and harmful environmental side effects are minimized. Insecticides should only be used on an as-needed basis; therefore, insect scouting must be conducted regularly throughout the season to determine if an insecticide application is warranted.
