kabanayol9: why is your blood hot like this? You posted and you want solution within 20 minutes. We can not even see the problem from the picture you posted. Anyway release chicken into the farm, if the problem is caused by insects, the chicken will eat the insects As you don collect the 1st position now, wetin you gain. Only you post question, only you collect 1st position. 2 Likes |

Usually you spray fingicides, go to your local agro allied store to ask for the one suitable. Never spray pesticides if crop has started flowering to prevent fruits from containing unsafe amount of pesticides. Also, the picture didn't really capture the disease so i don't know how to address it. Could you snap from a better view? 1 Like 1 Share |

Try and single out an effected plant and capture the problem so as to be able to diagnose the problem more. Also check around the plant, under the leave for the presence of any insect. |

kabanayol9: Lol, Your picture did not clearly capture the defective ones among your corn. But what I m seeing from afar appears like armyworm infestation. To check it out, sacrifice a defective plant among your corn,gently tear down the foliage(you can use a knife or blade) and concentrate on the "pipe" , the armyworm, greenish brown colour worm, usually stay at the bottom of the pipe and covers itself up with the debris of its waste product. Perform this exercise and get back with the feedback. If it is the one, people will surely give you the solution you want. 1 Like |

Use catapillar force. It is a power substance like that. Measure a two spoon into a bucket of water. U can use any plastic bottle, open the cover with a nail, fill the water inside and spray |

kabanayol9:That's armyworm. Very destructive, stubborn and cunny. Its right below those debris you are seeing. It uses the debris to insulate itself from attack. If you sprsy insecticide anyhow, it gets absorbed and neutralized by the debris and it will not touch it. It also developed resistance towards many insecticides. Findings show it moves towards the surface/ mouth of the foliage in the morning and return to the bottom when the sun is out. So the best time to apply insecticide is in the morning before sunrise. Nozzle must be directed towards the mouth of the pipe when spraying (for shorter crop). Unfortunately your corn has gone taller (maybe than you self) you may end up spraying your body if you want to use this method. So its better to use the water bottle method of the poster above since you farm is no big. Every farmer has diff testimony of the insecticides that work for them. To some, its laraforce, army force, catapillarforce, neem, etc. Most important thing is to spray at the target spot and time. 2 Likes 1 Share |
