Several insects can harm corm crops, including the corm weevil (Scirpophaga excerptalis), which burrows into the corms, causing decay and reducing yield. Other pests like aphids and leafhoppers can weaken plants by feeding on their sap and transmitting diseases. Additionally, root-knot nematodes can damage the root systems, leading to poor growth and reduced crop health. Effective pest management strategies are essential to minimize their impact.
