Hi, Ken, It could be cabbage maggots, which are the larvae of the cabbage root fly. They love turnips. The most efficient preventative is to use floating row cover (light-weight 鈥渃loth鈥) in such a way that it creates a tunnel and is secued at ground level on all sides (and ends). The cover can touch the plants, but should be loose enough as to not constrict growth of the plant. We hope this helps!
