How to control girdle beetle infestation in soybean crop

Girdle Beetle insect causes maximum damage to the soybean crop. The female of this insect forms two rings on tender stems, branches or leaf stalks and makes 3 holes in the lower ring and lays eggs through the middle hole. Small caterpillars emerge from its eggs, after which it hollows the stem by eating it inside.
As a result, the stem becomes weak, water and minerals absorbed by the roots cannot reach the leaves, and the entire plant withers and dries up. Due to this, there is a significant reduction in the production of the crop.
