Pink Bollworm Eradication Program

 

Important Notice (March 2, 2007): Pink Bollworm Eradication Program Information from the Arizona Cotton Research and Protection Council. On 28 Feb 2007, Western Farm Press erroneously reported, "Western Arizona Pink Bollworm Eradication Program on Hold." In fact, the PBW eradication as planned is a "Go" in LaPaz and Mohave counties of Arizona for 2007, with the decision by the federal government to fund the sterile moth program. This expansion will also include Southern California and Mexico. Yuma County will not enter the eradication program until 2008.
