Develop methods for control of insect contaminants in machine harvested fields. .
A unique problem for caneberry growers is the presence of insect contaminants in
harvested fruit caused by the mechanical harvesting methods. Vibrating rods
move through the plant canopy causing ripe fruit, along with any insects present,
to drop on to a conveyer belt. Many of these insects can be removed by
mechanical or visual methods, but some species have characteristics that make
this very difficult. The method of choice to prevent this contamination has been
broad spectrum insecticide application prior to and during harvest. |
