The area of wheat with the first-generation armyworm in the Middle and Lower Reaches of Changjiang River, Jianghuai and Huanghuai in 2016 is 426,666.7 ha, 58% and 30% less than those in 2014 and 2015. The national average armyworm volume per square meter is 1.7, 29% and 59% less than those in 2014 and 2015. After prevention and control, the average left armyworm volume in a variety of fields is 0.3 per square meter, 67% less than the average in 2014 and 2015.
Therefore, it is forecasted that the second-generation armyworm in 2016 will strike on a medium scale and high-density armyworm-stricken fields will occur in some regions in Inner Mongolia, Liaoning Province, Hebei Province and Shandong Province. It is predicted that the total occurrence area of the pest in China will be 2 million ha this year and the peak period of caterpillars will be from late June to early July.
