North Central Regional Soybean Aphid Suction Trap Network
Supported by the WI Soybean Mktg. Board and the USDA NCR IPM program the Antigo area is now home to a soybean suction trap.
The trap will be used primarily to monitor fall flights and potential soybean aphid overwintering and potential predictive value of trap catch to forecast ahpid levels between seasons. The suction trap is primarily a field crop (soybean) program. However, with snap beans and other veg crops, aphids are a concern. Andy Merry, in Antigo, WI offered to host a suction trap on his farm.
