Establishing a good stand is critical for final yields. BASF Regional Seed Treatment Account Manager Carrie Pederson says controlling wireworms in small grains is essential. “As soon as that root germinates, it attracts wireworms that start feeding and will kill that crop. A lot of products on the market just make that wireworm tired without actually killing them, so the population is still there.” Pederson says Teraxxa uses a different mode of action on wireworms by interrupting their nervous system and terminating the pest.
