Eastern New York Commercial HorticultureOpen House for Spotted Wing Drosophila Netting Exclusion and Fix Spray System Farm Trials
September 2, 2015
Spotted Wing Drosophila research continues in our ongoing effort to better understand and control this new pest. This meeting will focus on the second year of an SWD exclusion netting project;a SARE Farmer grant fund project, and its efficacy on eliminating SWD from blueberries and smaller crops.
In addition to SWD control with netting, we will look at a high tunnel raspberry planting that has three years of data on a fixed spray system used to control SWD. This event will happen rain or shine and there is no fee for attendance, but please register in advance.
