Attack of the podworms!

Quentin and Paul went out to scout fields this morning.  There have been reports of soybean podworms (same insect as corn earworm) in the area.  Most of the fields were infected.  The earliest soybeans planted were already past the maturity window when the podworms attack, but the rest of the fields will probably have to be sprayed.  They were able to round up some chemicals today and are hiring a neighbor to spray starting tomorrow.  Hopefully, we can take care of them before they do too much damage.
