Video (French): How to manage corn rootworm in grain and silage corn

Corn rootworms are important pests for this crop, especially the larvae that attach to the roots and can indirectly induce yield losses. Good integrated crop management reduces the risk of damage. In this video, you will be able to learn more about: corn rootworms and their biology, the damage caused to corn by these pests, and the different methods of integrated management. This explanatory video is a project of the Grain Research Center (CÉROM). It was funded by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food as part of component 3 of the Prime-Vert program and is linked to the Quebec Phytosanitary Strategy in Agriculture 2011-2021. This video is in French.
