Across the corn belt depending on time of year | We have noticed both extremes in Iowa in 2024.
One applicator pulled all the screens/filters and had issues because he had not been very good about cleaning his equipment. It was prior chemical residues which did the plugging, not the nematodes
A second applicator was successful with no problems, but he had a reputation of cleaning his equipment well between chemicals changes.
Bottom line, the equipment needs to be clean from prior usage and it seems to be the prior chemical residue that causes problems, not the biocontrol nematodes. |
Biocontrol nematodes - Rootworm - Persistent Biocontrol
