Calhoun County has been included
among twenty-five Arkansas counties
designated in an ash quarantine. Voted
into action last week by the Arkansas State
Plant Board, the quarantine was enacted to
slow the spread of the Emerald Ash Borer
(EAB).
Quarantined items include firewood of
all hardwood species, and the following
ash items: nursery stock; green lumber
with bark attached; other material living,
dead, cut or fallen including logs, pulpwood, stumps, roots, branches, mulch and
composted/un-composted chips (1 inch or
greater). Firewood is the only quarantined
item that relates to all hardwood; all other
quarantined items are relative to ash, only.
The Arkansas Department of Correction Agriculture Division will host its annual horse
auction on Oct. 4 at the Saline County Fairgrounds in Benton.
