Managing Rice Stink Bug in Southern U.S. Rice

Don and Tyler sat down in the Crop Doctors’ Podcast studio with Jason and Tom to talk about rice stink bugs.  Even though it’s only May and rice stink bugs are a late-season pest of rice, this discussion is important to work plans for the season.  Tenchu has been a major insecticide for control of rice stink bugs; however, a Section 18 has been requested and granted for Indigo in recent years.  For 2024, the Section 18 request will only be submitted after supplies of Tenchu are exhausted.  Contact Don for more information and how to make plans for late-season rice management.
