If your lettuce fields are being impacted by aphid infestations, we suggest that you consider adding NipsIt as a filmcoat treatment to your primed and pelleted lettuce seeds before planting. Shimat V. Joseph, IPM Advisor, Cooperative Extension Monterey County recently published a report stating that Lettuce aphids are one of many insects that are threatening California grower\u2019s productivity this 2017 season. Late and heavy rains along with mild temperatures may be contributing to insect and weed infestations. Lettuce fields in the Salinas Valley and central coastal regions are experiencing pressure from Lettuce aphids, green peach, and foxglove aphids.<\/p>\n

Benefits of NipsIt\u00ae Seed Treatment<\/h2>\n

NipsIt Vegetables provides lettuce growers with seed-applied protection against leaf miner (suppression), red lettuce aphid and green peach in full season lettuce. According to its manufacturer Valent U.S.A, the benefits include:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Simplicity<\/strong> \u2013 your lettuce seed comes complete with an effective insecticide that protects your seedlings from important sucking and chewing insects such as leaf miner (from planting to thinning) and aphids (from planting to mid-season).<\/li>\n
  2. More vigorous growth <\/strong>\u2013 protection of tender seedlings against leaf miner (suppression) damage means a stronger and healthier plant throughout the season.<\/li>\n
  3. Season-long productivity <\/strong>\u2013 seedlings are protected from insects, enhancing uniformity which provides production efficiencies all the way through harvest.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \"Protect<\/p>\n
