| Latin Name | Agrotis fucosa |
| Common Name | Yellow Cutworm |
| Biology | Adults are nocturnal and lay eggs in soil or on weeds. Larvae are large in size, feed on crop roots and stems, have a long damage period, complete one generation per year, and overwinter as larvae in soil. |
| Damage | This pest primarily damage cotton, corn, vegetables. |
| Distribution Regions | High-altitude regions of East Asia |
| Monitoring | Pheromone lures mimic natural sex pheromones to attract male insects into specialized traps for population monitoring and suppression. As a core IPM component, monitoring enables early risk detection and targeted control. Mass trapping reduces mating opportunities to curb offspring populations. Protocols: ●Use only with matched traps. ●15-45 traps/hectare,replace/replenish every 4-6 weeks. ●Wear gloves or wash hands with detergent when switching lure types. ●Refer to trap-specific hanging instructions. |
| Recommended Traps | Delta Trap, Wing Trap |
Literature review
The cited publications support the exact compound-species relationship. Formulation, ratio, loading, release rate and field lifetime depend on a validated lure protocol and are not inferred here.
