Spider Mites

Spider Mites are showing up already. We scouted a field south of Bridgeport today and there was a very large colony found doing an extreme amount of damage to the crop already. This is the earliest that I have seen mites show up in the geography. This leads me to believe that we will have a fight against them all season. In this particular area they received a good shot of moisture last week and just ran the pivot over it this week. The colony was still very large. Contact a sales rep at Panhandle Coop and we will place you on our Inspex program and evaluate the crop. If an issue such as this flares up, a great deal of yield can be lost in a short amount of time.
