dity at critical periods and insect
pests. Some factors we do not have
control over, while others we do
insect pests being one.
I.ygus bugs are known to. infest
all major alfalfa producing areas IN
the state. They increase the occur
renee of blasted buds, blossom-drop
and shrivelled seed during the pro-
duction of an alfalfa-seed crop. The
degree of injury is generally as
sociated with the intensity of the
infestation. Lygus may not be en-
tirely responsible for blossom-drop
or bud blasting but careful exam
ination of the plants should reveal
the cause.
Lygus are a sucking-type insect
and they injure the tender growing
or fruiting parts of alfalfa by pune
turing the tissues to obtain food. A
heavy infestation of lygus can easily
result in a serious economic loss to
the producer.
According to information received
from the entomologists of the Mon
tana Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton lygus can be quite successfully
controlled by spraying with DDT or
toxaphene when the alfalfa is in
the early bud stage. The rate of
application for DDT recommended
is liz pounds per acre. Two pounds
of toxaphene per acre is recon-
mended.
Between two and three weeks
later, when the alfalfa is in the
bloom stage, only toxaphene at 2
pounds per acre should be used.
The spray operation should be COM
pleted before z am. in the morning
or after z pm. in the evening to
protect honey and wild bees.
A definite insect control program
is as important as any other farm
practice used in your seed produc-
ton program. 1t is imperative that
all known factors of production be
combined for maximum returns. In
the alfalfa seed game in Montana
we are at the mercy of southern and
southwestern seed producing areas.
FIELD INSPECTION
About the time this article reaches
producers of certified small grain,
grass and legume seed, inspectors
for the Montana Seed Growers As
sociation will be inspecting fields.
This is an important phase of the
pure seed program in Montana de-
signed to assure commercial pro-
ducers supply of high quality seed
of recommended varieties.
Producers of certified seed are
urged to have fields rogued prior
to arrival of Inspector. This means
removing from the field any off
variety crop or weed which may
interfere in the harvest or seed
cleaning operation. One of the
major causes for rejection for certi.
fication of small grains is the pre-.
sence of wild oats. Sweet clover
has been the major factor respon
sible for rejection of legume seed
Although it is impossible to guar
antee a market for all certified seeC
produced, there are indications tha
high quality seed will be in demand
