6 Soybean Aphid Threshold Potassium Levels Drought Stress! Soybean Varietal Tolerance to SBA? Indirect Yield Loss Direct Yield Loss Crop Stage Soybean Yield Response to Insecticide Treatment Biological Control & Abiotic Factors Economic Injury Level = Pest density which causes loss equal to the cost of control. Economic Threshold = Pest density at which control action is taken to PREVENT pest population from reaching or exceeding the EIL Cost of Control Expected price of crop Soybean aphid Exponential Growth Eileen Cullen – UW Extension, Entomology

11 Product Performance & Canopy Distribution Lorsban Furadan Pyrethroids Volatile distribution through canopy. May “fume” into untreated check strips Systemic, a.i. activity within plant in addition to contact activity Cannot work its way through canopy beyond contact activity. Coverage in closed canopy critical for efficacy against aphids at lower and inner locations on plant. Eileen Cullen – UW Extension, Entomology

12 Product Performance & Temperature Lorsban Furadan Pyrethroids Optimal performance at higher temps. (may increase “fuming” action) Also relatively better at higher temp Exhibits a Negative Temp Relationship: Works better under cool conditions below 90 o F. Eileen Cullen – UW Extension, Entomology

13 Product Performance & Residual Lorsban Furadan Pyrethroids Short residual, measured in days. Longer residual than organophosphates. Some additional feeding exposure, due to systemic activity Longest residual, 2 weeks or more Eileen Cullen – UW Extension, Entomology

14 Data Courtesy of Craig Grau, UW Plant Pathology Watch Late-Planted Fields  Plants relatively younger, more nitrogen (?)  Soybeans in critical bloom/reproductive stages at aphid build

15 Relatively Cool Summer 2003 Optimal temperature for soybean aphid development: 68 to 77 °F Soybean aphid predators function better at high temperatures Fungal disease: prolonged hot and humid conditions Eileen Cullen – UW Extension, Entomology Biological Control Weather Biotic and Abiotic Dynamics! Drought, Scattered Rainfall Heavy rainfall can temporarily reduce aphid populations – depending on canopy density.

22 Soybean Aphid Efficacy Data & Threshold Guidelines Latitude Bridge Illinois – Iowa – Minnesota - Wisconsin February 5th, 2004 Eileen Cullen University of Wisconsin Extension Entomology Department

23 Efficacy Data & Management Guidelines Eileen Cullen – UW Extension, Entomology Nicotinoid Seed Applied Insecticides on Soybean WI 2003 Efficacy Data:  Foliar Residual Activity  Seed Treatments 2004 Scouting &Threshold Guidelines

24 a.i. ~ clothianidin [Poncho] a.i. ~ imidacloprid [Gaucho] a.i. ~ thiamethoxam [Cruiser] Systemic. As the seed imbibes water and germinates, a.i. on the seed is taken up into plant through the xylem. Nicotinoid Insecticide Seed Treatment How does it work in the plant?

26 Nicotinoid Seed Treatment Soybean – In Trial Phase Eileen Cullen – UW Extension, Entomology  Soybeans treated on a grams a.i. per 100 Kg seed basis. “Poncho 62.5” = 62.5 g a.i. / 100 Kg seed  Early season protection. Interest in how long into season activity persists. (4 – 6 + weeks depending on a.i., crop, and pest)

27  Nicotinoid Resistance Concerns Imidacloprid – clothianidin - thiamethoxam  Selective activity against piercing-sucking insect feeding and virus transmission.  Reduced non-target effects  Field Corn corn rootworm  Field Corn 2° soil pests  YieldGard Rootworm Bt Field Corn seed protectant  Seed and Food Grade Soybeans  Grain Soybeans (registration in development phase) Eileen Cullen – UW Extension, Entomology

35 Seed Treatment Summary  Seed treatment trials were LATE planted (June 9).  Seed treatment for soybean aphid will need to take planting date into account to ensure systemic activity during aphid impact. Eileen Cullen – UW Extension, Entomology

36 EPA Section 18 Emergency Exemption Registration in WI and IA (March 28 to June 1, 2003) for Gaucho on seed and food grade soybean only. Labeled for early season Bean Leaf Beetle and Bean Pod Mottle Virus control. Gustafson has been contacted by the state of IA with plans to request another Section 18 for Gaucho seed treatment 2004. Early season Bean Leaf Beetle control and Soybean Aphid. May cover all soybeans. Soybeans are treated by the manufacturer or seed dealer, NOT on-farm by producer. Soybeans may only be treated in state(s) with the Section 18 registration. [2003: 400,000 Acres worth of seed/food-grade beans could be treated in IA and WI, then planted in other states].

38 Threshold - 250 aphids per plant increase - assumes aphid numbers are on the increase - provides a 7-day lead time (call in equipment, deal with weather delays) - use through R4 (full-pod stage) Cannot overemphasize DROUGHT Chris DiFonzo, Michigan State University

42 Scouting When: When: begin late June/ early July (may vary by region) What: What: Whole plant counts - 20 to 30 plants per field - no apparent edge effects (winged aphids colonize uniformly) - increasing populations even out across plants Pay special attention to: - areas w/ buckthorn (colonized early) - late-planted fields - double-cropped beans - beans under stress, particularly DROUGHT STRESS How many times? How many times? Fields have to be visited multiple times How Long? How Long? 2003, up to third week of August in many locations. Chris DiFonzo, Michigan State University

43 Timing of Application R1 – R2 bloom R8 mature R7 matur- ing R6 full seed R5 seeds forming’ filling R3-R4 pods forming, growing Do Not treat Late Veg stages 250 aphids per plant - Increase threshold. - Yield benefit may be less. Chris DiFonzo, Michigan State University Continue to scout and work from 250/plant as a reference threshold

44 Prepare with Guidelines Presented Here: Scouting Use of Threshold Optimal Spray Timing Will 2004 be a repeat of 2003? What is the Soybean Aphid “Norm”?
