Fall armyworm (FAW) is a problematic moth known to damage crops during its larvae stage. A native pest of the Americas, it reached New Zealand in 2022, likely from Australia. FAW is a plant pest that can feed on over 350 plant species, particularly sweetcorn and maize. For NZ farmers, FAW could be a big risk to their maize crop if conditions are conducive - tune in to this episode featuring guests from Corteva Agriscience and Pioneer Maize to discuss what you can do to protect your crop and find out more about this pest.
