The USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service’s (APHIS) Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ) pale cyst nematode (PCN) Eradication Program in Idaho has posted its 2019 second quarter report (April 1–June 30). The report updates program activities and eradication progress, and provides quarterly and aggregate regulatory, survey and laboratory data.

The PCN Eradication Program is a cooperative effort among PPQ, Idaho State Department of Agriculture and industry stakeholders. The program’s goal is to control PCN spread, and eventually establish Idaho as PCN-free.

Stakeholders can use the quarterly reports to monitor program activities and progress, and support their own management or policy decisions as needed. To view or print this program report or other PCN-related information, follow this  link and click on "Program Updates."
