âThe paucity of humility shown by the Government in the face of such antipathy is stomach-churning.â âLet me start with an apology for the paucity of blogging lately.â âThere's still a paucity of fresh produce in the shops, very little more than a few tired cabbages and exhausted apples to be found.â
A common name for an insect that infests cotton plants is the boll weevil. The adult boll weevils are reddish-brown, gray, or almost black in color and are normally less than 0.24 inches long.
The boll weevil invaded all USA cotton crops by 1922, forcing southern US farmers and investors to embrace peanuts, soybeans, and sweet potatoes. George Washington Carver's inventions using these three crops created profitable new markets for them.
