- 14 - 28 June 2023
This week we are joined by special guest Michael Basedow, tree fruit specialist with Cornell Cooperative Extension Eastern New York Commercial Horitculture Program (ENYCHP). Our regular hosts include Monique Rivera, assistant professor of entomology at Cornell AgriTech; Kerik Cox, associate professor of plant pathology; and Anna Wallis, fruit IPM coordinator.
In this episode, Monique sits down with Mike to talk about emerging pests and recommendations in the Champlain Valley. Kerik gives advice about pruning fire blight from trees. Anna brings us her State of the State update on regional degree day accumulation, pest developments, and apple phenology. Recorded June 27 (Anna and Monique) and 28 (Kerik) and released June 28, 2023.
