As SWD has now been trapped in most locations across the state, and fruit begins to blush, it’s time to be sure to keep a tight control schedule in any orchard with SWD pressure. Join us for this webinar, organized by LOF and NYS IPM and sponsored by Valent and FMC, where we will discuss the best management tactics to combine control for SWD and fruit flies in cherry and other crops.
