Spud Scoop, September 7
Welcome to Spud Scoop for the week ending on September 5, 2020. No late blight has been reported in ND, MN and MB. Congratulations to everyone in the potato industry in our area. Stay diligent with fungicide protection and scouting fields as harvest approaches. This week no late blight spores were found in the spore traps. Aphid numbers were down this week buy they’re still flying. Green peach aphids are more dispersed being found in 10 of 19 sites. Good luck with harvest as it gets into full swing.
