We like receving new equipment, even more so when its painted orange (or blue). Thanks to Michael (firetruckdroneguy) for making the trip and delivering our Tender/skid unit for the UTV. We are looking forward to putting it to use within next few weeks during #spraydrone studies!

This 100% #cotton jersey is printed with a watercolor fish pattern & is treated with a UV absorber to achieve a UPF 45 rating. As a natural fiber, cotton is a smart choice for reducing microplastic pollution in our waterways. #FabricFriday cottonworks.com/fabricast/sk-2…

The two spotted leafhopper (Jassid) is occurring at economic levels in some fields in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and Alabama. This pest has the potential to be the greatest economic problem since the boll weevil. Many questions remain, only time will tell.
