Missouri Western Bean Cutworm Monitoring

Subscribe to IPM Pest Monitoring Alerts

Western bean cutworm (WBC) can be a severe pest in corn and dry beans. Larval feeding damages both crops through reduced yield and quality. In corn, direct feeding losses may be compounded by fungal and mold infections associated with larval waste products. In beans, damaged beans are a significant quality factor for both processed and dry bagged beans.
