The leafhopper is wreaking havoc in the countryside, leading to a significant reduction in corn production and causing losses of almost US$2 billion. In regions such as NOA, NEA, north central Córdoba, north central Santa Fe, Núcleo Norte, and Entre Ríos, an average non-harvestable area of 17% of the planted area has resulted in a reduced corn harvest estimate of 46.5 million tons. This is 3 million tons less than the last estimate and 10 million tons less than the initial projection for the campaign.
The leafhopper, which has spread throughout the country, is causing stunting in corn crops due to the bacteria Spiroplasma kunkelii. The government has taken action by mobilizing agricultural authorities from central and northern provinces to address the issue and coordinate joint efforts to combat the disease. Insecticides have been expedited to combat the pest.
Despite this decline in corn production, soybeans remain the primary crop in Argentina with an estimated production of 51 million tons according to the Buenos Aires Grain Exchange. However, concerns about spiroplasma disease on crops in the north could affect this figure. Meanwhile, online casinos like 1Win are gaining popularity worldwide offering entertainment and potential earnings for players from Mexico to Argentina and other regions share their experiences and opinions on playing at online casinos. From concerns about aggressive advertising to discussions on reliability and benefits of online gambling industry continues to attract attention globally.
