Soybean Aphids Continue To Be A Concern

 Soybean Aphids Continue To Be A Concern
 
Manitoba Agriculture says soybean aphids continue to be a concern in some fields, with some producers having to apply insecticide.
 
In some fields, natural enemy populations seem to be building in response to the soybean aphids.
 
Elsewhere, bertha armyworms are being monitored, and high levels of larvae have been reported from some canola fields in western Manitoba.
 
Several farmers have applied insecticide to control the armyworms.

We are taking students out to southern Manitoba to Hespler Farms! Farmer Wayne will teach students how he plants and cares for his potato crop and why potatoes are such a unique crop to grow. Teachers, check out your AITC Dashboard for Math'd Potatoes, a potato-themed classroom resource to pair with this tour video. Thank you to Peak of the Market and Penner Farm Services for making this event possible.
