Illinois
Fruit and Vegetable News is a weekly newsletter, offered during
the growing season, that covers production and pest management issues
for com- mercial fruit and vegetable growers.
Campus-based specialists in entomology, plant pathology, horticulture,
and weed science, along with field-based educators in IPM and horticulture,
cooperate to produce this newsletter. From May to September 1998,
commercial fruit growers across the state participated in a pheromone
monitoring program for key insect pests in apples and peaches. Their
observations were reported weekly in the newsletter.
