Description

You may have never given today’s topic much consideration, but this is the episode you didn’t know you needed.


In this episode, Western Growers' Kara Timmins and Jeana Cadby talk with CDFA entomologist Dr. Jason Leathers and canine handler Michelle King to explore the exciting world of agricultural pest detection.


They’ll share why it’s so important travelers don’t pack a
pest and how we can all participate in protecting agriculture. We’ll even get to meet agriculture detector K9 Kernul, an eight-year-old chocolate lab who helps
protect California agriculture by using his nose to sniff out unwanted pests in unmarked packages.
