Spore counts continue to surprise!
May 3, 2019
While most farms and paddocks have decreased this week, counts at our Te Poi monitor farm have increased.
Grass samples tested this week from the MVS Monitor Farms have shown the following :
- Hinuera Monitor Farm – 26,700 spores/gram
- Matamata Monitor Farm – 16,700 spores/gram
- Te Poi Monitor Farm – 45,000 spores/gram
- Tirau Monitor Farm – 11,700 spores/gram
- Walton Monitor Farm – 20,000 spores/gram
Spore counts are still at moderate levels this week, so don’t feel safe from FE until you know what the counts are doing on your farm.
