Together, the UCCE Farm Advisors seek to provide relevant, topical research-backed information relating to CA rice production.

Today Luis Espino and I will be talking about Rice Armyworm Monitoring Program and the second generation of armyworms in rice. 

Two true armyworm generations occur in rice; moths fly in spring and early summer, laying eggs in rice fields and surrounding vegetation. The larvae that emerge feed on rice foliage. A second moth flight occurs in mid-summer, followed by larvae feeding on rice foliage and panicles.
