UNIVERSITY
PARK (Centre Co.) —
Public concern over
pesticide residues in
food has resulted in
rapid change in chemi
cal product availability
and regulation. The lat
est edition of Penn
Slate’s Tree Fruit Pro
duction Guide will alert
growers to the changes
and introduce new pest
management practices
that can be incorporated
into their program.
“Many fruit growers,
extension agents, and
industry consultants are
interested in knowing
more about how to
minimize their use of
pesticides,” said Dr.
James Travis, associate
professor of plant
pathology and one of 16
scientists who contri
buted to the new edition.
Integrated pest manage
ment (IPM) is one of the
guiding concepts behind
this year’s revision,
which provides new
information on pesticide
use, weed control, and
orchard management
A new section, “Farm
Management,”
describes state and fed
eral laws that apply to
Pennsylvania fruit pro
ducers, hiring consul
tants, wage and with
holding facts, worker
and community safety,
and special employe
ment concerns. Addres
ses and phone numbers
of the appropriate gov
ernment agencies are
provided.
Also new to the guide
are fact sheets, illus
trated with color photo
graphs, which are help
ful for identifying and
controlling 32 of Pen
nsylvania’s major
weeds.
The guide is pub
lished by Penn State’s
