Somehow our shipment of the revised MS-105 was not received. We are trying to locate more so a copy can be sent to all Alfalfa growers as there are several pertinent changes in control recommendations. In the mean time we will be happy for Alfalfa growers and custom spreader-truck owners and operators to come by the office to; study our one copy of the nqw Alfalfa Weevil Control leaflet.
