Grain sorghum fields range from bloom to soft dough. We are still finding stink bugs in sorghum fields, average fields have 1 stink bug per head but some are higher.
Treatment thresholds are low at bloom and increase as the grain matures.

Some of the fields have leaf footed bugs. These insects can be considered as stink bugs since they feed in a similar manner.
Sugarcane aphid numbers were low this week. Continue to monitor for aphids when scouting for stink bugs and headworms.
