Upcoming Apple Leafcurling Midge Webinar

Join Cornell Extension and others in the northeast for a deep dive into apple leafcurling midge IPM

In recent years, the apple leafcurling midge (ALCM) has become an increasingly problematic pest in many orchards across the northeast. Due to its small size and tendency to damage the newest terminal growth, growers often don’t notice there is a problem until it is too late to manage effectively.

Cornell Extension, Eastern New York Commercial Horticulture Program and Lake Ontario Fruit Program will be co-hosting a webinar to hear from Kristy Grigg-McGuffin, OMAFRA Horticulture IPM Specialist on ALCM management. All are welcome!

FEBRUARY 16, 2023

1:30 – 2:30 PM EST

In this webinar, Kristy Grigg-McGuffin will discuss Ontario’s experience with ALCM, including its biology, monitoring, biological control and chemical management.
