2014 Wheat Stem Sawfly Report

Full comprehensive set of projects currently underway in the Wheat Stem Sawfly Management Program at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln. The wheat stem sawfly continues to grow or maintain its intensity in the region and may be expanding in geographic range. However, the idea of "range expansion" in the wheat stem sawfly could be misleading. It is present throughout North America; however, for reasons not yet fully understood, its population density and pest status are increasing dramatically in some locations. Our best defense against this pest is likely to be solid-stem wheats or rotation out of wheat and into other small grains that have either no or lessened susceptibility to this insect.
