Earliest 1999 diapause spraying date in Terry County
Terry County Entomologist Phillip Kidd says no organized diapause spraying before fall 1999. The Western High Plains Boll Weevil Eradication Steering Committee set Oct 30 1998 as the referendum date, delaying the diapause program start. The delay follows Texas Department of Agriculture guidance not to enforce 1998 assessments.
