While doing my usual tour of the farms i came across a ute with TTDI6 on it,they were using GPS and note book all plastic jars were numbered and dated ,they were putting a very small insect 1/4 the size of a flee,at random on to the contaminated cassava,[MEALY BUG?] which had white small balls on it and in a gather , when i asked with very litle thai,i know they said something like benie, that they were putting on the cassava.
what is the size of the lazer wasp they are suppose to be releasing.
Or is this for something esle,a few farms around have the same problem.
lucky for me at the moment i am OK.
does anyone have an idea what they are, tried to ask if from gov, but no understand.
