Belt SC insecticide (flubendiamide), a new worm management tool
for corn from Bayer CropScience, has been registered by the U.S.
EPA for control of several economically important Lepidoptera
species. According to Bayer CropScience, the material will provide
rapid feeding cessation as well as long-lasting residual control
for better overall protection of crop value, all without disrupting
Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs.
