ASEV is pleased to offer a webinar series on invasive pests
starting June 3, noon to 1:00 pm (PDT). Speakers will present
information on new and re-emerging invasive vineyard pests in
North American grape production.
Heather Leach, an extension associate
with a focus in entomology at The Pennsylvania State
University, University Park, will launch the series by discussing
the impact of the spotted lanternfly in Northeastern vineyards.
Furthermore, she will review its biology and identification, the
risk of its establishment on the West Coast and how to best
manage it.
The spotted lanternfly is an invasive planthopper that was first
discovered in the U.S. in 2014 in Pennsylvania. Since its
introduction, it has spread to six states and has caused
considerable damage to agricultural and ornamental plants. The
most impacted agricultural commodity to date is grapevines.
Spotted lanternflies feeding in vineyards can cause significant
yield losses or vine death.
The 1-hour webinar is free to ASEV members and $50 for
non-members.
