To Our Readers,
This will be the last regular edition of the MN Fruit & Vegetable IPM News. We will have a wrap-up edition in late September. Thanks go out to all our apple cooperators and ECB/CEW trap cooperators who provide us with weekly monitoring information. It has been a great pleasure to write the newsletter this year. We would like to thank our sponsors – the Minnesota Fruit & Vegetable Growers Association and the USDA Risk Management Agency. If all goes well, we hope to bring you the Newsletter again next year.
Please feel free to drop us a line and tell us what you liked, what you didn’t like, and what you would like to see more of in this publication.
Have an abundant harvest!
