Book Pest Management Programs for Deciduous Tree Fruits and Nuts

Download or read book Pest Management Programs for Deciduous Tree Fruits and Nuts written by D. J. Boethal and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pest Management Programs for Deciduous Tree Fruits and Nuts attempts to present the current status of pest management programs in orchard ecosystems. The book is a collection of papers from a symposium convened on the subject for the 1977 National Meeting of the Entomological Society of America and invitational papers on commodities not covered during the symposium. In recent years, books have appeared on "integrated pest management (IPM)"; however, most of these have concentrated on field crop IPM with an occasional chapter on fruits. No publication presently exists which brings together information on the pest management programs currently being conducted on the major nut crops, almonds, pecans and walnuts. Because it is the first treatment for almonds and walnuts, the authors of these chapters have attempted not only to present the current IPM technology but the historical data which led to the contemporary programs. Two chapters appear on pecan IPM. The first concentrates on the development of a management program for the pecan weevil, the key arthropod pest of pecans, while the second discusses the implementation of pilot pecan IPM programs in two southeastern states. The latter chapter illustrates that even with a limited data bank, the pesticide load in pecan orchards can be reduced by the adoption of the IPM approach to pest control.

Book The Navel Orangeworm  Amyelois Transitella

Download or read book The Navel Orangeworm Amyelois Transitella written by Kevin Rayne Cloonan and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A three-step, quasi-double-bind approach was used as a proof-of-concept study to screen twenty compounds for their ability to reduce oviposition of gravid female navel orangeworm (NOW), Ameylois transitella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae). First, the panel of compounds, whose identity was unknown to the experimenters, was tested by electroantennogram (EAG) using antennae of two-day old gravid females as the sensing element. Of the twenty compounds tested three showed significant EAG responses. These three EAG-active compounds and a negative control were then analyzed for their ability to reduce oviposition via small-cage, two-choice laboratory assays. Two of the three compounds significantly reduced oviposition under laboratory conditions. Lastly, these two compounds were deployed in a field setting in an organic almond orchard in Arbuckle, CA using black egg traps to monitor NOW oviposition. One of these two compounds significantly reduced oviposition on black egg traps under these field conditions. Compound 9 (later identified as isophorone) showed a significant reduction in oviposition in field assays and thus has a potential as a tool to control the navel orangeworm as a pest of almonds.

Book Effects of Farm Management Practices on Navel Orangeworm

Download or read book Effects of Farm Management Practices on Navel Orangeworm written by Cole Dutter and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Central Valley produces the majority of California almonds. Navel Orangeworm, Anyelois Transitella (Walker), is the most critical pest of almonds in California. Management of Navel Orangeworm is primarily accomplished by cultural practices of mummy shaking and early harvest. Research on management practices that control Navel Orangeworm have been limited by the number of studies, replicates within the studies, the scope of the replicates and examined factors of control. This study looked at the effectiveness of multiple farm management practices on Navel Orangeworm, using egg counts as an indicator of pest population pressure. Sixty farms (11 organic, 49 conventional) were monitored from May 1st to October 5th in 2012. Egg counts were then analyzed by farm type, distance from organic farms, direction to organic farms, management practices and multiple environmental factors. This study found that there was no difference in egg counts between farm types, egg count differences were not correlated with the trapping distance, and nine management practices and environmental factors were identified as significant drivers of orchard egg counts. There were significant differences between farms as the number of chemical applications increased, and there was no significant difference in the percent of inedible nuts between organic and conventional farms. This study revealed that farmers who sprayed less for Navel Orangeworm, used less potent pesticides, did not use miticides and fungicides and mowed or disked their mummy nuts tended to have lower egg counts within their orchards.
