PEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES

E

Now I have some questions about pest management practices you may have used on any of the total fruit acres on this operation. (Include bearing and non-bearing acreage of both target and non-target fruit crops grown.) By pests, we mean insects, weeds, and diseases.

YES - [Continue.]		No - [Go to item 5.]
1. Was weather data used to assist in determining either the need or when to make pesticide applications?. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .						CODE
				YES = 1		600
2. Were any biological pesticides such as Bt (Bacillus thuringiensis), insect growth regulators (Courier, intrepid, etc.), neem or other natural/biological based products sprayed or applied to manage pests?. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
				YES = 1		601
3. Were pesticides with different mechanisms of action rotated or tank mixed for the primary purpose of keeping pests from becoming resistant to pesticides?. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
				YES = 1		602
4. In 20XX, how were your fruit acres primarily scouted for insects, weeds, diseases and/or beneficial organisms? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .	1 By deliberately going to the fruit acres specifically for scouting activities. (Enter code 1 and go to item 6.) 2 By conducting general observations while performing routine tasks. (Enter code 2 and go to item 8.) 3 The fruit acres were not scouted. (Enter code 3 and go to item 11.)		. . . . . . . . . . . . .
						608
5. Was an established scouting process used (systemic sampling, recording counts, insect traps, etc.) on any fruit acres?. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
