After the COVID pandemic an event for 3rd Grade students of Lyon County was conducted on September 28, 2023 with the participation of the entomology team of the UK-REC at Princeton. In this event roughly 200 students received information on insect pests and natural enemies in soybeans and corn fields. As well a display was presented on insect camouflage and mimicry. In the event also participated the LBL Nature station, the KY Soybean grower association, Soil Science and Forestry personnel. These students enjoyed the event and in a long time the lessons completed here might persist and change the perception of insects, environment, and ecological relationships in natural areas or field crops.
