A Newsletter for Commercial Potato and Vegetable Growers Prepared by the University of Wisconsin Madison Vegetable Research and Extension Specialists
Hello,
Click here to find our UW Madison Division of Extension Vegetable Crop Updates Newsletter #3. In this issue we address:
- potato production updates
- Colorado Potato Beetle, Potato Leafhopper, Seedcorn Maggot updates
- 2024 Commercial Veg Production Guide in WI A3422
- Potato and vegetable disease forecasting
- Phytophthora nicotianae blight vs late blight
Please note that I made in error in the first two issues of our newsletter in the “Calendar of Events.” Our July 31, 2024 Field Day is the UW Madison Rhinelander Ag Research Station – Potato Breeding Farm Field Day – in Rhinelander WI (contact Becky Eddy). My apologies for previously listing the wrong UW Rhinelander Farm.
Best regards,
Amanda
