LACK OF ORCHARD ACCESS PRESENTS SANITATION PROBLEMS

摘要

It's often said a person's most valuable ability is availability, so it stands to rea-son that the most valuable attribute of an orchard is accessibility. You can't fix problems in an orchard if you can't get in there.While that may seem fairly obvious in hindsight, it came as a bit of a surprise to University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE) researchers who conducted a poll over this past winter to sound out nut growers on navel orange-worm (NOW) management. The insect is the top pest for both almond and pistachio growers and also presents problems for walnut growers.
