Frequent cutting of alfalfa kills the larvae in the leaves and does much 
to protect this crop. This method should be followed where the injury 
becomes serious. 
Deep fall or winter plowing is advocated for annual forage crops and 
cereals in order to bury deeply the hibernating puparia located near the 
surface of the ground.
