In all of these crops, stink bugs are one of the primary insect pests of concern.\u00a0 After bloom, cotton fields should be checked for stink bug management by opening 1-inch bolls and checking the inside for evidence of stink bug feeding.\u00a0 This feeding can be seen by inside boll wall warts or stained seed or lint. The chart below shows how the economic threshold changes over the course of bloom.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Sorghum fields are susceptible to stink bugs from bloom through soft dough, but as the seed matures, it is less affected by the stink bug feeding. The chart below demonstrates the stink bug economic threshold for three different grain sorghum yields, a $9\/cwt value and a control cost of $8 per acre.\u00a0 Control cost includes the cost of the insecticide and application cost (around $5\/acre for ground application).<\/p>\n

Soybeans also enter the damage window for stink bugs at bloom but are most susceptible from pod fill to mature bean.\u00a0 Economic thresholds for green and brown stink bugs is 36 bugs per 100 sweeps. If the stink bug species is the red banded stink bugs, the ET is 12 bugs per 100 sweeps.<\/p>\n
