Manitoba's Hopper survey. This looks good for 2007.

Our retail has light land to the east and south of it. We go through 96 jugs of Lorsban most years fighting hoppers. 2006 was a down year, but if the cattle men in hopper friendly country have to start fighting the critters things heat up fast.

I'm optomistic 2007 looks good
