Number of Days Before Tasseling |
Crop Condition | Number of Aphids Per Plant |

---|---|---|---|
21 | Normal | 15 | |
21 | Stressed | 10 | |
14 | Normal | 30 | |
14 | Stressed | 15 |
During pollen-shed, aphids may interfere with pollen-shed if they are abundant on the tassels due to their secretions of sticky honeydew.
If greater than 50% of the tassels are covered with aphids and their honeydew prior to 50% completion of pollination, control may be needed.
