Numbers = Soybeon acreage, 1959 Status of Soybean Cyst Nematode Peanuts in GEORGIA were infested by several pests common to this crop during the 1960 season"! Infestations of GRANULATE CUTWORM (Feltia subterranea) caused heavy defoliation of peanuts throughout the major peanut-producing counties of the State and caused considerable concern,as 4-5 days were required after the appli- cation of controls to kill the pest. Light to moderate infestations of CORN EARW0RM (Heliothis zea), FALL ARMYW0RM (Laphygma frugiperda) and RED-NECKED PEANUTW0RM (Stegasta basqueella) occurred on peanuts in Georgia during 1960. Infestations of LESSER CORNSTALK BORER (Elasmopalpus lignosellus) were also light to moderate on peanuts in the State; however, the infestation was gener- ally lighter than during 1959. Infestations of a BURROWING STINK BUG (Pangaeus bilineatus) were generally light on peanuts during the 1960 season. Du
