Cotton producers may need to rethink late-season, spider-mite spraysCotton producers may need to rethink late-season, spider-mite sprays

Spider mites have been considered a late-season pest in  cotton.

Mississippi State University’s Jeff Gore  discussed the group’s research at Cotton Incorporated’s Crop Management  Seminar in Tunica, Miss.
