Almonds, grapes, tomatoes lead 2019 Yolo Co ag. production. Mystery seed update.

from KSTE Farm Hour

Yolo County agriculture is in the spotlight this week. In Woodland, sheriff’s detectives recovered 70 stolen bee boxes. And those bees are critical to Yolo county’s largest crop, almonds. The latest yolo county ag report is out, and almonds remain number 1. But there is a new crop in the second position. We have the details. We have an update on last week’s story about the mystery seeds that have been mailed, unsolicited, to unsuspecting homeowners. And those masks aren’t just to ward off the coronavirus. As the summer California wildfire season continues, a shortage of N95 respirator masks threatens California’s farm laborers, working in smoke-filled fields. And a huge fire in northeastern california may be effecting the quality of the crops grown there. All that, a look at the weather ahead, crop progress reports, and more…on this week’s KSTE Farm Hour.
