TRICHOSAFE® results
Plus 5.7 t/ha fresh weight & €50 revenue/ha
In a trial conducted by Philipp Krainbrink, a farmer from the Magdburger Börde region, the use of Trichogramma proved highly effective! By applying TRICHOSAFE®, Krainbrink achieved – in a direct comparison with the untreated plot – a total of 5.7 t/ha more fresh weight. The European corn borer infestation was therefore significantly reduced! After deducting all costs, the use of TRICHOSAFE® resulted in additional revenue of approximately 50€/ha.This field trial thus demonstrates the yield potential that targeted biological control of the European corn borer can offer.
After the maize harvest: shred the stubble thoroughly
The larvae of the European corn borer overwinter mainly in the lower sections of the stalks and in maize stubble. Thorough mechanical shredding destroys some of the overwintering sites and reduces the potential for infestation in the following year. A clean result is crucial: the stubble should be cut as close to the ground as possible, split lengthways and completely shredded. Subsequently, thorough incorporation into the soil aids the further decomposition of the plant residues. Stubble cultivation complements targeted control measures during the growing season. The assessment indicates which areas require particular attention in 2027.
Assess. Cultivate the stubble. Plan specifically for 2027 – use TRICHOSAFE®
Identifying wireworm damage during the potato harvest
Identifying wireworm damage during the potato harvest
The potato harvest reveals just how high the wireworm pressure actually was on a particular plot. Typical feeding marks on the tubers provide important clues for assessing the infestation. Use the harvest to document damage and plan your crop protection strategy for the coming season well in advance.
Check, document and take precautions for 2027 now.
