This Invasive Insect, Spotted in Georgia, is Now in Peak Season

By Chaya Tong

An invasive insect capable of destroying agricultural crops has been spotted more frequently in Georgia this summer, prompting experts to offer simple advice to those who encounter it.

If you see a spotted lanternfly, take a picture, report the bug and then kill it.

The insect, which first landed in Georgia last fall, has been seen multiple times this summer, with 19 confirmed sightings, all in Fulton County.

Video: Kansas Wheat Harvest 2026 | Three John Deere S7 700 Combines in Action

Kansas Wheat Harvest 2026 is underway near Alden, Kansas!

In this video, I spend time with Frederick Harvesting, a custom harvesting operation based in Alden, Kansas. Back at their home farm, three new John Deere S7 700 combines equipped with John Deere HDF40 draper heads work through a drought-stricken winter wheat crop while one of the farm's John Deere 8R 370 tractors pulls a Brent 1398 grain cart.

Most of the Frederick Harvesting crew was already busy cutting wheat in southwest Kansas, but these machines remained at home to finish up local fields. Throughout the video, I explain what is happening, discuss the effects of dry conditions on the crop, and capture plenty of aerial footage showing the combines working with the grain elevator at Alden in the background.
