Rome Ethredge posted an article from Dr. Lenny Wells, UGA Extension Horticulturist, on the start of the pecan harvest this year in Georgia.  This year’s crop looks to be one of the best we have had in the past several years and was aided by dry conditions in June which helped prevent scab in the pecan trees.  The crop is running 10 days to two weeks early, perhaps in part due to the warm temperatures we have had this summer.  You can read it at https://seminolecropnews.wordpress.com/2015/09/29/pecan-harvest-begins/.
