Project Number: 5305-22000-012-03
Project Type: Specific Cooperative Agreement

Start Date: Sep 19, 2005
End Date: May 31, 2009

Objective:
Evaluate the efficacy of soil fumigants that are alternatives to methyl bromide following repeated applications to strawberry production fields.

Approach:
Collaborations will be established with cooperating growers to evaluate alternative fumigants in California strawberry production following repeated applications for three-four successive years. Field trials will follow yield throughout the season as well as weed control so an economic cost benefit analysis can be calculated. Documents SCA with UC Davis. Formerly 5305-22000-009-18S (12/07).
