Stink Bug Management:A Challenge for All Producers

摘要

First, I would like to refer to an excellent article by Monte Nesbitt from the August 2010 issue of Pecan South titled "Victory or Defeat in August," where he talks about the difficulty in producing pecans during August. This difficulty not only applies to the horticultural challenges of filling out kernels but this is also a time when producers have to deal with some very important late season pests such as pecan weevil, aphids and the stink bug and leaffooted bug complex.
