Corn earworm and soybean looper are almost always the most costly insects for North Carolina soybean producers. Losses and costs of control for these two insects during both 2016 and 2017, for example, were around $50 million each year. Insecticide choice one of the most critical steps in pest management. Both of these insects have developed resistance to many insecticides, making insecticide selection difficult. These results will aid grower selection by identifying what insecticides are or are not likely to work for these insects in North Carolina soybeans.
