Field Crop Pest Management Circulars

Field crops pest management circulars are designed to provide information on the biology and assessment of pest populations affecting Ohio field crops. In regard to pest population assessment, these circulars provide specific guidelines on field sampling and data interpretation to facilitate effective pest management decision making. The pest management circulars do not include recommendations on current pesticide treatment available, since such information is provided in Ohio State University (OSU) Extension Bulletin No. 545 (Insect Pests of Field Crops), OSU Extension Bulletin No. 827 (Corn and Soybean Field Guide), and Info-Bug software generated fact sheets, which are updated periodically. The series also includes circulars reviewing concepts and implementation of integrated pest management (IPM) on key field crops of Ohio, namely field corn, soybeans, and alfalfa.
