The One Big Beautiful Bill Act was signed into law on July 4th. The Bill contained many key updates to the farm safety net. Important Immediate Changes Changes to the Price Loss Coverage (PLC) and Agricultural Risk Coverage (ARC) programs
As hot and dry weather becomes more common across Mississippi, spider mite populations have the potential to reach treatable levels in areas. Effective management depends on timely decisions based on field scouting, pest interactions, product selection, and weather forecasts. Consider
As tarnished plant bug (TPB) populations continue increasing across Mississippi cotton acres, it’s important to revisit best management practices (BMPs) to protect yield and profitability. TPB continues to be the most economically significant insect pest in the region, and heavy
Bollworm trap catches in the Delta region dropped some this week from last week’s very high numbers, but catches were still equal to or higher than long term averages. Bollworm catches in Northeastern MS were about average. Tobacco budworm catches
On June 30th, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) released its annual June Acreage report, providing the first official survey-based estimate of actual planted acreage for the 2025 crop year. The June report provides a critical benchmark by presenting

This article outlines the steps needed to help make these decisions accurately and reliable.
Southwestern corn borer trap counts continue to remain low across the state.
Corn progresses through six stages as ears develop through reproductive growth stages. Identification of these stages can help time development, make prudent decisions and anticipate crop response to management practices and environmental conditions.
Bollworm pheromone trap catches of moths were higher this week, especially in the Delta region. Washington County traps were filled with bollworm moths, with each trap (3 total) catching more than 400 moths during the week.
