In addition, should favorable weather conditions not exist in a particular year, the midge can remain dormant in the soil for several years before it reemerges. Then, they can quickly take advantage of good environmental conditions, and populations can reach epidemic proportions in a very short time period. All of the damage to a wheat crop is caused by the larval stage. Once the eggs hatch, the midge larvae feed on the developing wheat kernels, causing them to shrivel, crack, and become deformed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-27596db elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"27596db\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"539\" data-src=\"https:\/\/metos.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Figure-1_Adult-wheat-midge-and-life-cycle-1024x539.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-59111 lazyload\" alt=\"Figure 1: Adult wheat midge and life cycle\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/metos.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Figure-1_Adult-wheat-midge-and-life-cycle-1024x539.png 1024w, https:\/\/metos.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Figure-1_Adult-wheat-midge-and-life-cycle-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/metos.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Figure-1_Adult-wheat-midge-and-life-cycle-768x404.png 768w, https:\/\/metos.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Figure-1_Adult-wheat-midge-and-life-cycle-18x9.png 18w, https:\/\/metos.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Figure-1_Adult-wheat-midge-and-life-cycle.png 1111w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1024px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1024\/539;\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Figure 1: Adult wheat midge and life cycle<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-990d086 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"990d086\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e777fe3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e777fe3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>As stated, midge damage affects both yield and grade.

Insect populations can vary over a short distance, so it is necessary to have the appropriate number of insect traps at a field location. This was accomplished by having an automated iSCOUT\u00ae pheromone trap and using a series of manual sticky traps. The automated iSCOUT\u00ae trap worked as the sentinel, letting the farm manager know that wheat midge has now emerged and the population levels. This saves trips to the field. Once the midge has been identified, field scouting and sampling of the manual traps begin.<\/p><p><strong>So what are the results?<\/strong><\/p><p>Read them in the new brochure <em><strong>below<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d04a855 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"d04a855\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a05668e elementor-section-content-top elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a05668e\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-aec716a\" data-id=\"aec716a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-140e6e0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"140e6e0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Want to learn more?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-113ca39 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"113ca39\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Download the<strong> In-Field Insect Identification\u00a0<\/strong>brochure.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-644eccc elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"644eccc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/metos.global\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/iSCOUT_Midge-EMILI-mockup-qltuh6jd9urpcoo1ej7iw93jgwoj4898wum9zjqqo8.png\" title=\"iSCOUT_Midge-EMILI-mockup\" alt=\"iSCOUT_Midge-EMILI-mockup\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 500px;
