This document sets out the measures to be taken against Eotetranychus lewisi, a regulated harmful organism, with the aim of preventing its emergence and, if it does, acting quickly and effectively, determining its distribution and implementing eradication measures. Eotetranychus lewisi is a mite of the Tetranychidae family.
Recommendations for treatments against red palm weevil and other palm borer pests
Whiteflies are among the pests of greatest concern to the persimmon production sector in the Valencian Community. Within this group of insects, the species most commonly found on persimmons are Dialeurodes citri, Paraleyrodes minei, and Aleurothrixus floccosus.
Whiteflies are the pests that have most concerned both the persimmon and citrus production sectors in the Valencian Community in recent years. Within this group of insects, the species most commonly found are Dialeurodes citri, Paraleyrodes minei, and Aleurothrixus floccosus.
Cottony mildew is one of the pests that most concerns the persimmon production sector in the Valencian Community. They feed on the plant's sap, weakening it, and excrete large amounts of honeydew, on which saprophytic fungi develop, forming a characteristic black felt known as "sour patch." Fruits stained with sooty mold lose commercial quality.
Cajamar celebrates 50 years of commitment to agricultural research by publishing a work that transcends mere commemoration to become a key reference tool.
In this online workshop, organized by QuantiFarm in collaboration with EUFRAS, on November 28, 2024, farmers, rural consultants and other stakeholders had the opportunity to delve deeper into:
Results of the 2016/17 campaign of irrigation trials on commercial avocado farms on the Andalusian coast.
Root rot, caused by Phytophthora cinnamomi Rands, and white root rot, caused by Rosellinia necatrix Prill, are among the most important diseases affecting avocados. This guide aims to provide practical information for identifying them in the field and provide a key set of general recommendations for their prevention and/or treatment.
The white mealybug (Aulacaspis tubercularis) is the most important pest of mangoes in southern Spain and one of the most damaging worldwide. The basis for its integrated management is proposed here. A description of the pest is provided, along with data on its biology, symptoms, and damage.
The white mealybug is a key pest in mango crops in Andalusia as it produces significant
In the search for alternative crops to conventional greenhouse-grown vegetables, this study evaluated the greenhouse production of six cultivars of sweet cucumber (Solanum muricatum). The trials were conducted in 2015. All cultivars developed successfully, achieving high yields, with the Valencia cultivar standing out as the most productive and earliest.
This paper aims to provide some key insights into improving irrigation management in Andalusian avocado cultivation. Irrigation and proper water resource management are critical factors for maintaining crop viability and long-term sustainability in the face of current water scarcity and future climate change forecasts.
This document briefly describes the characteristics of the four most important pest species of avocado crops in our area (two tetranychid mites and two mealybugs) and their main natural enemies (predatory mites, neuropterans, and coccinellids). Photographs accompany the description for quick identification.
Powdery mildew, along with bacterial necrosis and flower malformation, is one of the most damaging and common diseases found in Andalusian mango plantations. The symptoms are obvious and easily recognized, but if not properly controlled, they can lead to yield losses and, in some cases, affect crop quality.
Mango is one of the most prized exotic fruits worldwide. In Andalusia, it is cultivated commercially in the provinces of Granada and Málaga thanks to the area's characteristic microclimate. Deficit irrigation is an optimization strategy whereby crops are subjected to a controlled level of water stress, resulting from a reduction in water input based on the crop's net demand.
