Volume 57 Number 19 Date 08/23/2012 POTATO LEAFHOPPER - Counts in alfalfa are generally below 2.0 per sweep. Nymphs are present in low numbers at a few southern and central sites, but the cooler weather this month has caused a noticeable decline in reproduction and development. PLANT BUG - Mixed populations of tarnished and alfalfa plant bugs are still common in alfalfa. Counts vary from 0.3-3.1 per sweep, with an average of 1.2. Plant bug nymphs continue to appear in sweep net collections. --Krista Hamilton, DATCP Entomologist
