PCN Regulated Field Description: June 13, 2025
Since the last update to the PCN regulated area on February 26, 2025, APHIS amended the pale cyst nematode (PCN) regulated area in Bingham and Bonneville Counties, ID, as follows:
- Removed one PCN-infested field in Bingham County (119.71 acres) because it completed a release protocol for PCN-infested fields. The protocol comprised a sequence of surveys with negative laboratory results for PCN in accordance with 7 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) §301.86-3(d)(1) and criteria listed in the “Canada and United States Guidelines on Surveillance and Phytosanitary Actions for the Potato Cyst Nematodes, Globodera rostochiensis and Globodera pallida.”
- Changed the regulated acreage of a PCN-associated field in Bonneville County by adding 2 acres to the south side of this field because it is now being farmed as one unit. We made this change in accordance with 7 CFR §301.86-3(a). In addition, we deregulated 19.07 acres from the west side of the same field because this land no longer meets the definition of an "associated field" in accordance with 7 CFR §301.86-3(c)(2); this 19.07-acre parcel of land is now a residential property.
With these changes, the total number of PCN-regulated fields is 56, of which 31 are infested fields and 25 are associated fields. The current PCN-regulated area in Idaho is 6,315.74 acres, of which 3,420.10 acres are infested fields and 2,895.63 acres are associated fields. The infested fields are within an 8.5-mile radius that spans a portion of northern Bingham County and southern Bonneville County.
