Which corn acres are good candidates for hybrids containing Herculex I?
All corn is vulnerable to insect pests throughout the growing season. However, early planted corn is more susceptible to first generation corn borer and black cutworm. Late-planted corn is more severely damaged by second generation European corn borer, Southwestern corn borer, fall armyworm and corn earworm. Full-season, broad-spectrum insect protection will help limit damage and stress from insect pests and help hybrids reach their full genetic potential, regardless of planting date.
