Sampling Information for Asian Citrus Psyllid
I just updated my web site to provide a sampling protocol for Asian citrus psyllid for both conventional and organic citrus orchards. Once ACP enters a region, it is very important not to rely on yellow sticky cards to determine if ACP is present after a treatment. Instead, conduct visual examinations of the new flush leaves of 50 trees per block as suggested by this protocol and sampling plan.
