Bob Wright, an extension entomologist at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, is featured in this video about the unusually high number of army cutworm moths, and whether they will affect planted corn. UNL extension educators are reporting calls from producers concerned about army cutworm moths affecting corn.

"The moth flight is early because of the warm winter, and probably higher because of the mild winter," he said. "But they're not going to do any more damage this summer."
