2024 Pest Survey Results

As we progress into the heart of the 2024 growing season many outlets and experts are beginning to express concerns around a potential increase in instances of significant disease and insect pressures due to a mild winter and wet spring.

FBN surveyed members in early June to find out what pests are top of mind as we move into the summer months. You can see the full results in the recently published blog post:
