The University of Arizona Cooperative Extension has received a lot of questions on its online portal about dying trees statewide. An analysis of the trees seemed to indicate that drought was hurting the trees. Pine trees were succumbing in Bonita, Willcox and Pearce, but no pathogen was found that would explain the issues that the trees had, apart from lack of water.
