Congratulations to Buzz Lowe for correctly identifying last week’s pest as black cutworm. This was a photo I took in 2019 of a soybean field in Kent County that had severe stand loss due to cutworms. The only good thing this one did was it also ate a pigweed. Buzz will be entered for an end of the year drawing for a scouting toolkit and a jar of honey.
