Pest & Diseases
Strawberry Production
Saturday, April 21st, 2007Varieties. Seascape and Lowanna. Seascape was developed in California and Lowanna was bred in Victoria. Both are called day neutral plants which means they have four or five flowerings (and crops) in a season. Seascape is not publicly available.
Pests and diseases
Saturday, April 21st, 2007From the establishment of the orchard we have largely undertaken a reactive approach to the use of pesticides. This means we inspect the trees each week for the presence of insect pests, mites and diseases. We also look carefully for the presence of useful insects, such as ladybirds and lacewings and predatory mites.
