Resistencia (Chaco) - The National Health Service and Food Quality (Senasa)
reminded cotton producers need to destroy stubbles cotton immediately after
harvesting their lots, as conditions of temperature and humidity favor the
regrowth of the crop it is used as food by the cotton boll weevil.

The heavy rains throughout the NEA delayed the cotton crop so it is
important to destroy the stubble as you go harvesting to prevent regrowth
of the crop.
Senasa Resolution No. 74/2010 and its amendment established the following
deadlines for the destruction of stubbles: Corrientes, Formosa and
Misiones: May 31; and Chaco: 15 June.
It is important to respect the period that allows free cotton fields for at
least 90 days, which is technically known as fallowing and constitutes one
of the most efficient cultural methods for managing the boll weevil, since
he removes insects and flowers bowls with which it feeds and survives until
the next cotton season.
