Kris Tollerup, UC IPM Advisor stationed at the Kearney Ag Center, is initiating a study on insecticide treatments for leaffooted bug in pomegranate at Lindcove.  According to Kris, leaffooted bug populations are normally lowered by cold winter temperatures, but we did not have cold temperatures this past winter.   The result is that there are plenty of test subjects available on the pomegranates at Lindcove!
