Ashburn, GA, (very close to Heaven!) | The most important part of this discussion though is kinda buried in the data and that is to scout for and spray aphids (the vector for bydv) both spring and fall as soon as they are detected. That is the most important thing that most wheat farmers can do to improve their overall wheat yields. Good advice. Consultants, if not already involved in wheat scouting, are all looking for other winter time opportunities. Wheat is not an uncomplicated to crop to grow as many think it is. It is the "not so little" little things that many producers miss out on, and you just hit on one with the aphids. |
