Aphid
infestations normally do not begin in rice, rather aphids may be numerous in
wheat or adjacent weeds and move into rice. 1996 was the first year greenbugs
were reported in rice. Some were found in the years since, but the number of
fields infested and the densities in fields has decreased. Bird cherry-oat
aphids were first reported in rice in 1997, and have been reported each year
since.
