Checking for Nematodes
We're checking for Nematodes in the A orchard with a study being done at the University of Minnesota Ag group.
Nematodes are very little organisms that live typically around old root systems. Since we pulled out about 125 old apple trees last year and want to plan the new Sweet Tango there this year we need to check the Nematode population.
