Our summer projects have started - Sampling for planthoppers and stink bugs in Palm Beach County rice fields #UFBugs

Florida #rice looking good! We are monitoring for the potential presence of invasive pests like the Mexican rice borer. No concern so far. Early detection is key! #UFBugs

Planting #bermudagrass with Sustainable Ag UF for fall armyworm project UF IFAS Everglades REC - Belle Glade. Learning something new every day! #UFBugs

#Rice Field Day participants practiced sweep net sampling and compared their rice stink bug numbers. Thank you for participating in this hands-on activity. Scouting is key! #UFBugs UF IFAS Everglades REC - Belle Glade Sustainable Ag UF Matthew VanWeelden

#Sugarcane Crop Protection Workshop at the UF IFAS Everglades REC - Belle Glade this morning with Matthew VanWeelden. Stakeholders learning about stem borers and wireworms. #UFBugs

Congratulations to Eric Schwan Resende on completing his MS Exit Seminar. Eric is a M.S. student in the Entomology and Nematology Department. He is working under the supervision of Dr. Julien Beuzelin (Julien Beuzelin). #UF #IFAS

First #armyworm egg mass of our fall #SweetCorn season in southern Florida. This UF IFAS Everglades REC - Belle Glade corn is less than 2 weeks old and needs to be protected very soon. #UFBugs

Don't let fall armyworms ruin your #SweetCorn crop vscnews.com/sweet-corn-sco… Anna Meszaros

#Celery experiments with Anna Meszaros at UF IFAS Everglades REC - Belle Glade. Beautiful morning. Enjoyed sunrise in the field as we recover from the cold temperatures. Got #IPM work done too! #UFBugs

MS Student Carol collecting #rice stink bug parasitoids using sentinel eggs in #organic and conventional rice fields in the #Everglades Agricultural Area. Can #FreshFromFlorida rice benefit from #biocontrol? #UFBugs

Last round of on-farm #rice stink bug sampling for the season. Carol and the crew are still smiling, ready to collect parasitoids. Thanks Florida Crystals Southern SARE. #biocontrol #UFBugs.

Fall #armyworms are already above threshold < 2 weeks after planting. Great start for our #sweetcorn #entomology season in southern Florida UF IFAS Everglades REC - Belle Glade Anna Meszaros #UFBugs

We are wrapping up our UF IFAS Everglades REC - Belle Glade insect pest management experiments for the winter/spring 2023 field season with #SweetCorn. #UFBugs

Corn silk flies remain the most damaging insect pests of #SweetCorn in Florida: 100% ear infested in non-protected fields during the spring UF IFAS Everglades REC - Belle Glade #UFBugs

The search for pyrethroid alternatives for corn silk fly management is on-going UF IFAS Everglades REC - Belle Glade #UFBugs

Wireworms should to be controlled at planting (or before) to prevent yield loss in Florida #SugarCane. Research supported by The IR-4 Project shows that reduced-risk chemistries are effective U.S. Sugar Florida Crystals #UFBugs

#SweetCorn season is over, but corn silk flies occur in #SugarCane fields. Great opportunity to spray potential attractants and see if we can manipulate fly distribution UF IFAS Everglades REC - Belle Glade #PushPull #UFBugs

As a Vice-president of the American Society of Sugar Cane Technologists (ASSCT) Florida division, I got an opportunity to facilitate conversation between ASSCT and UF/IFAS Advancement office (Julie Conn) to set up an endowment at EREC, and finally we did it! Thanks ASSCT!
