In this workshop we will tackle some of the most common disease and pest pressures that we are likely to encounter in our farm season. We will go over methods of prevention, use of beneficial insects and cultural controls. We will talk about scouting and thresholds and what and when we may need to spray. We will discuss why to and not to spray and how to do so safely and minimally. You will hopefully leave this workshop being able to identify a few common pests and diseases and be able to create a basic game plan to combat this unfortunate aspect of organic farming!
