Description: Our group meets monthly (the first Tuesday morning) to discuss current vineyard pests and their management, including pertinent monitoring information and IPM strategies. Strategies for dealing with vineyard management challenges are discussed. The goal is to create a strong local network for communicating best pest management strategies and for support with solving viticultural anomalies.
Following our regular PCA NETWORK BREAKFAST MEETING, we are happy to invite Sara Goldman from Suterra to teach us how to identify male mealybugs from the delta scouting traps. Free traps were passed out at the April 4th Mealybug & Virus Meeting and this is a chance to bring your trap back and learn how to ID the male mealybugs under the microscope. Even if you don’t have a trap, you are welcome to join and learn!
