Corn rootworm hatch risks continue across much of the corn-growing region with High risks in the more intensive acreage regions of Kansas, Nebraska, the Dakotas, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio, lower Michigan, and also into southern Ontario, Canada. Moderate risks are found in these same states as well as into eastern Colorado. In the southern corn-growing region, especially, initial beetle risks are also in place where fresh silking corn is present and will continue to increase in percentage in the days ahead especially along and south of I-80 where hatches occurred earlier. Growers should continue scouting efforts both for determining larvae populations but also in more advanced fields where some beetles may be appearing at this time.
