The Midwest Fruit Pest Management Guide is updated each year by the Midwest Fruit Workers group to provide the most complete information and recommendations for controlling weeds, diseases and insect pests of all major fruit crops grown in the Midwest. For the past three years, the guide has combined information on tree fruit, small fruit and grapes. There are many revisions in this year’s version as there have been a number of label changes by manufacturers and several new products registered. The guide is valuable resource for all fruit growers as it keeps them up to date on the latest products, registrations and recommendations. Be sure to get a new copy before the spray season starts.
The guide is available from the Purdue Education Store in print format for $15 plus shipping and handling at: https://edustore.purdue.edu/item.asp?Item_Number=ID-465. Copies will also be available at some of our workshops and summer meetings. It is also available as a free download at our website at: https://ag.purdue.edu/hla/Hort/Pages/sfg_sprayguide.aspx.
