LEXINGTON, Ky. — The Midwest Fruit Pest Management Guide 2018 was developed by the Midwest Fruit Workers Group, which includes University of Kentucky Extension specialists, as well as specialists from twelve other universities. This publication combines two longtime annual guides that have become familiar to countless growers: Midwest Small Fruit and Grape Spray Guide (ID-94) and Midwest Tree Fruit Spray Guide (ID-92). These publications were combined in order to address the needs of many producers who grow a wide range of fruit crops. ID-232 is revised every year to keep up with the latest management and pesticide recommendations.
The 2018 Midwest Fruit Pest Management Guide (ID-232) is available online (free). Print copies can be purchased from the Purdue Extension Education Store.
