This is the first FHB update for Virginia in 2018. Currently the wheat crop
is in the jointing stages, and we are several weeks away from flowering.
Currently the risk is low for most areas of the state except for the Eastern
Shore. These conditions may change as the wheat crop approaches flowering,
so be sure to continue monitoring the risk tool. Weekly updates will be
provided until wheat in the state has completed flowering.
