Crambe Insects
Insects that have potential for causing damage to crambe include grasshoppers, aphids, flea beetles, imported cabbage moth, diamondback moth, leafhoppers and lygus bugs. Of these, only grasshoppers have caused significant injury to crambe (typically in field margins) in North Dakota. Crambe is most susceptible to grasshopper damage at the seedling stage. Grasshoppers tend to choose other crop foliage as crambe develops.
