June 02, 2021 Tail end Trials; UMass IPM Fruit Loop Vol. 29 Episode 9
Thinning windows are closing, ascospores are giving up a last gasp and even insect pests are slowing their roll this week. We seem to be at the tail end of the mad spring rush and getting ready to enter into that summer holding pattern (but more on that as things develop). Keep your eyes peeled for straggling plum curculio and #getoutandscout to see if you incurred any primary scab infections that need to be managed to prevent a secondary outbreak. Plus, oh so very much more. Take a listen!

May 19, 2021 Under pressure; UMass IPM Fruit Loop Vol. 29 Episode 7
Pressure to get out and manage multiple tree fruit considerations mounts as temperatures rise. Apple thinning remains high on the priority list. Plum curculio activity is picking up but has not yet hit peak while apple scab falls down on the to do list as a result of unfavorable infection conditions. Finally, fireblight is on the scene and ready to attack any open blossoms. All this and so much more in this newest episode of the UMass IPM Fruit Loop.

As you may know the fruit Extension Educators from New York and New England have teamed up to organize a series of winter meetings, via zoom of course.
These meetings are being held once a week throughout the rest of the winter. Extension Educators, and faculty from New York, New England and beyond have been kind enough to join us to share their research and experiences.
In this episode of the fruit loop you will hear the question and answer portion of January 26th’s blueberry twig blight presentation. If you are interested in viewing the video presentation portion, check it out on our UMass Extension Fruit Team youtube channel.
I would like to extend a special thank you to Mary Concklin from the University of Connecticut Extension program for inviting Mark to present at this meeting, to George Hamilton of the University of New Hampshire Extension program for his insights and of course our speaker Mark Longstroth, recently retired from Michigan State Universities Extension program.
If you would like to hear more about what Mark has to say, check him out on Twitter @MIbluedoc.
