ALFALFA WEEVIL DAMAQE.
GREATER THIS YEAR
Dui lag 1909 Ontario alGtIfit
go.•owers in some comities saw
alfalfa weevil damage at the tienu,.
wale level for the first time.
Severe injury was limited to all
counties bordering on Lake Erie
and in Prince Edward County.
Estimated losses to the first cut,
tin ranged from 30 to 50a;,. Little
injury appeared on the second cut-
ting, due primarily to the fact that
the harmful larvae or worms at-
tained their full development on
the initial alfalfa 'p:•i•iiiivtli that
could not be cut op lime bet:n11.$0
of wet weather.
This year, says Karl Berem
,1:1-xlension Entomologist, Ontario
Departmnet of Agriculture and
Food, in addition to heavy damage
in the counties mentioned above,
ii is expected that considerable in-
iary to alfalfa will also occur in
at least the southern half of Lamb,
ton, Middlesex, Elgin, Brant. and
NVentWorth Counties, es well im
the southern parts of Hastings.
LennoX and Addington. Freritortae.
and T,eedls,
The damage is caused by the
larvae or Worms, which hey orne
abundant between the last week
of May,and the tirst. two Weeks of
June, depending on location and
Weather, The larvae emerge from
egs's which are laid in the alfalfa
Stems by the adults in the spring.
Alfalfa growers' should be aware
Of the fact that when the temper-
ature is high enough to cause eggs
to hatch; huge numbers of larvae
:Annear all 'at once and van deci-
mate a field in a matter of days,
It. is there.ilme very ti-tportant that
all fields be checked every two or
three days during the. critical
period mentioned above.
Cantrol is directed against the
larvae 'when 25 to 5O4le of the
leaves show feeding damage. says
Mr. Bereza, and early cutting is
roc° m mended, even in the late
bud stage. If it is not possible to
cut due to the lack of plant de-
velopment Or interference from
wet; weather, and insecticide May
have to he considered, information
to date indicates that unless
stand. is about-50c4 alfalfa it may
not pay to spray.
The use of Parasites for the con,
trot of the alfalfa weevil appears
to be a practical measure. During
1969, parasites were credited with
the very significant reductions of
weevil populations and the dam-
age they caused in several States.
In view of that develtipment,
parasites, be released in Ont-
ario shortly.
Three different specie:: of tiny
wasps. two of which parasitize
the larvae, and one which attacks
the. adult weevil, will be distribut-
ed in two locations per county,.
The parasite releases are done in
cooperation With! alfalfa growers
in the cbutities that Were heavily
infested in 1969.
