Proposed Vendor: O&A Enterprises, INC. 37860 W Smith-Enke Rd. Maricopa, AZ 85239

602-743-6373, Oanda999@aol.com

Why is this the only vendor?: O and A Enterprises is the only cotton breeding company in the United States with the expertise, experience, and the field conditions to accurately evaluate cotton breeding lines for this pathogen FOV4. This Fusarium wilt pathogen has several races or biotypes. The listing FOV4 is race 4 which is not present in Mississippi, but it is a threat to Mississippi producers. We cannot bring the pathogen into Mississippi; therefore, O and A Enterprises is the only company that can evaluate our breeding lines.
