| Consumer demand for quality produce
together with the need for plum growers to obtain a homogeneous
crop and high yields mean that it has become vital to establish
integrated treatment schemes to limit the use of aggressive
products against tree parasites. These schemes allow growers
to treat under optimum conditions and only when harmful thresholds
are reached. |
The effectiveness of treatments depends on several
factors, including :
- thorough knowledge of the tree parasite and its life cycle
- choosing the right product and dosage
- compatibility between the different products used
- treating at the right time according to stages in the parasite's
life cycle, weather conditions and product characteristics
- the application technique used |
