Local producers: Watch your wheat for head scab infection

The weather was beau­ti­ful this past week for bal­ing hay, and looks like the crops are almost all in around Delaware County. I’ve been out scout­ing the wheat fields this past week, and I’ve seen head scab in a few fields and I’ve seen sur­pris­ing good wheat. The wet and humid spring has made it favor­able for head scab. All areas around the state are report­ing of head scab in fields.
