Entomologist PJ Liesch shares his predictions for CRW in 2022.
The weather conditions are going to play a huge role in this year?s population.
Corn Root Worms do a lot of damage to your fields and plants. This is why their cost is a billion dollars to the industry.
Liesch reminds you how to detect a problem in your field as soon as possible.
While larvae contribute a lot of damage, the adults are no better.
