Re: Potato IPM for Ukraine
Hey Greg!
I've had VERY FEW CPB in my no-till tomatoes(never had to spray for
them in 3yrs.). This is consistant over the years and everywhere no-till
tomatoes have been planted( the CPB doesn't like the mulch on the
ground). Now that no-till potatoes are successfully being grown(DR. Ron
Morse-VPI) This might be a viable option if some sort of cover crop can
be grown in the Ukraine. The biggest hurdle would be developing a
no-till planter.
You can contact Dr. Morse at: donna@vt.edu
