The term COTTON FARM PEST refers to the WEEVIL, a six-letter insect. Weevils are a type of beetle that feed on plants and can cause significant damage to crops. They are particularly problematic for cotton farms, as they can destroy entire fields of cotton. Weevils are small, brown, and have long snouts that they use to bore into the stems and leaves of plants. Control measures such as chemical sprays and traps are often used to reduce their numbers.
