Abstract
Abstract In a region newly infested with rootworm, particularly with the more damaging western wm rootworm (Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte), continuous corn (Zea mays L.) was severely damaged whereas corn in rotation with soybeans showed negligible damage under four tillage systems (moldboard, chisel, no-till and ridge-till). Although rootworm damage was highest in no-till systems in both continuous and rotated corn, yields were also highest. The importance of rotation with no-till corn production is emphasized.
