Black Cutworm

I sampled my first cutworm infested field today.  I did not do counts, but almost every time I stopped the 4 wheeler to probe I could see 2 or 3 cut plants.  We have heard that traps have caught a lot of moths, but late planting has slowed the reports of infestations.  With everything else there is to do right now, scouting may be the last thing on your mind, but it might be more than worthwhile.
