Open House for Spotted Wing Drosophila Netting Exclusion and Fixed Spray System Farm Trials
August 13, 2014
3:00pm - 5:00pm
Stephentown, NY
Spotted Wing Drosophila research continues in our ongoing effort to better understand and control this new pest. This meeting will focus on a SARE Farmer grant funded project looking at different grades of exclusion netting and its efficacy on eliminating SWD from blueberries.
We will also look at a high tunnel raspberry planting that has a NYFVI funded grant project examining the efficacy and labor saving attributes of a fixed spray system in the tunnel.
Owner Dale Ila Riggs has been a leader in the campaign to secure research funding for SWD. The Berry Patch at Stonewall Hill Farm produces all kinds of berries and vegetables for local retail markets.
