    Dec 28 2025

    Kasi is a non-commercial farmer, growing in Montana's Bitterroot Valley, and she encountered a planting of cowpeas during a recent tour of her ag experiment station that was meant to support wasps. She wants to know what gives?

    We chat about stinging wasps and the non-stinging parasitic wasps who provide biocontrol of pest insects.

    Full interview with Dr. Veronica Yurchak Extension Specialist in Commercial Vegetable Production at the University of Maryland
