Root-knot #nematodes LOVE okra! Digging #RKN females out of galls is fun 🤩 It is amazing how much nematode pressure these plants can handle 🌱 Active Plant Nematologists Society of Nematologists

Deer 🦌 wreak havoc in #peanut fields (well, crop fields in general). Unless they are tall, fences are not much of a deterrent. Some foliar spray products have been showing promise lately.
