Cotton and peanut growers were on hand Wednesday for the 2017 UGA Cotton & Peanut Research Field Day in Tifton, Georgia. The Georgia Cotton Commission was one of the sponsors for the annual event, and they are very aware of the issue of whiteflies in many cotton fields this year. So Tyron Spearman was able to talk with Phillip Roberts, University of Georgia Extension Entomologist, about that problem.
