[QUOTE="Farmer Dod, post: 340657, member: 3520"] Risk of wireworm is probably high but best to test. We grow after cereals so not really an issue for us. To the best of my limited knowledge Mocap (if still permitted) will give the best rate of control but will not be 100% effective. There are other ways to mitigate the effects of wireworm- grow a less susceptible variety e.g Pentland Dell/ Maris Piper as opposed to for instance King Edward (susceptible)- they will still be affected but the % damaged will be less. There is also a general rule of thumb- the longer in the ground, the greater the effects of wireworm. [/QUOTE]
